Actually, the Ford GT vs. Ferrari rivalry of the 1960s was quite similar. The Ford vehicle, despite costing less and using less exotic engines (though the dry-sump 427 ain't what I'd call mundane), soundly thrashed Enzo's best.
The FoMoCo beancounters must've been swigging Maalox for months now, but they'll sell all they can build, even at that absurd price. There *are* people around who will plunk down serious dough for a flashy set of wheels. I just saw one such gentleman earlier today, driving along in his Lamborghini Miura. That was the first one I'd ever seen outside of the pages of Hemmings Motor News.
