Go on, take another good look at that picture. Struggling with your gag reflex? We understand, but stick at it. Somehow this thing gets better the more you stare at it.
It's another tuned wonder from German uber-tweakers Gemballa - a jet-fighter inspired Enzo called Mig-U1.
It looks like an FXX that's wearing a bit too much make-up, and Gemballa claims the long list of aerodynamic changes - including wide arches, reprofiled nose, roof scoop, assorted gills and that massive rear wing - are worth an extra 35kg of downforce at the front and 85 at the back.
Inside, it's a mix of equally in-yer-face Alcantara and leather with some, er, nice red touches. A revised centre console helps house a 950-watt stereo system with seven-inch touchscreen.
Power? Thanks to an upgraded ECU and exhaust you're looking at 700bhp and, apparently, those new alloys save you 16kg over the standard alloys which might help the handling a bit. And perhaps offset that likely quite hefty interior.
There's no word on prices yet, but Gemballa is talking about transforming 25 Enzos, tailored to customer's own taste. Check out its website for what ‘taste' means in this context. Mr Enzo, we fear, would not have approved...

I'm struggling to keep my inner twelve-year old child from making me think it looks awesome... It's quite over the top.

Similar to how you get an umbrella with a Rolls Royce, does this come with a lightsabre?

That is really a work of German creativity combined with Italian art. Looks menacing yet approachable. My heart skipped a beat when I first saw it.

It looks pretty awesome but not very Enzoish, more like a new supercar that will never get built. Nice Reventon styling in the front. My question is with so many special editions being done of Enzos and Veyrons etc. by tuning companies will there actually be any normal ones left? After all they were made in fairly limited supply. So Gemballs stick to the awful Cayenne upgrades and leave the classic and ORIGINAL looking supercars alone please.
