Question: How much drugs must one sell to afford a [Ferrari](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/montblanc-great-characters-enzo-ferrari-pens) Enzo prototype? Answer: Don't sell drugs -- it's not a stable career choice. Unfortunately, unless your an oil tycoon or Keith Urban, there is probably very little chance you will be able to purchase a Ferrari Enzo prototype in your lifetime. Rather, stare wide-eyed at these photos and dream of what could be.

Designer Peter Simon's Ferrari Enzo prototype is a reinterpretation of the already [highly exotic sports car](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aston-martin-valiant), of which there are less than 1,000 in existence. He has given the exterior a complete retooling to make this mean machine even meaner, adding a sharp edge that makes it super tough.
