A deal was made soon after and the car was shipped to the next point along its journey.
As you quoted this sentence, it has to be some kind of hint.
It is a hint. There are additional hints in some of my past puzzles, but you would have to search through 500+ puzzles to find them.

Is it the Enzo that has travelled the longest distance without starting its engine ?
Not that

It was the only time I've ever been involved in the sale or purchase of an Enzo. And to be clear, my involvement was limited to inspecting and photographing the car on behalf of the purchaser.

Not celebrity-owned if that's what you mean. The car is noteworthy in its own right, not noteworthy based on ownership.

The engine was modified, but I don't recall the details of the modification. (I have records somewhere.) The mechanical modifications are not really what make the car noteworthy.

Let me save some time and just say that it's pretty much unique inside and out.  ;)

Don't get bogged down with looking at the images above or with attempts to make minute comparisons between this car and other Enzos. Remember:
