I have absolutely no reason to make up any falsehoods. The 8653 Technic Enzo is
REAL. I don't know how the picture leaked onto the internet, but it did.

Here is a link to MY NEW Project Enzo Ferrari, along with Lego's soon to be
released 8653 set:

I really think that people here should do a little research before they decide
to post and possibly ruin someone's credibility.

By the way, I found that picture of the Technic Enzo right here at LUGNUT:

One problem with communicating on the internet is that it is easy to take what
people say out of context.  No one has said anything bad about Crowkillers.

sent him an email asking him if it was a hoax because people on this site had
wondered about it.  I did not see that question as insulting.  Lugnet has a no
fire policy so maybe we should drop the matter and see what Lego does with the
kit in early 2005.
