Oh and I would be surprised to see a single Enzo with much more than 10,000 miles on the clock.

Enzo ≠ Daily Driver

Note, to self: Self, don't by an Enzo.

Okay. Call the Ferrari service department and ask the,m. There are special blends of oil for high end cars. It's just oil, but there's a hell of a lot that goes into blending them. Dropping Mobil1 into your 360 won't hurt it in the slightest. And no, using a different oil than the manufacturer specifices doesn't void your warranty under the law. But tell that to your Ferrari Service writer.
