1335 kg is not the curb weight for Maserati, it is claimed dry weight.
MC12 is heavier than Enzo, it's curb is about 1500 kg. So in power/weight aspect it has disadvantage and therefore slower on the straight.
MC12 haven't CCB unlike Enzo, so was worse in braking. But it had stiffer construction, more downforce and much stickier Michelin tires, which led it to be faster on tracks.
And according to reviewers MC12 was much more forgiving than Enzo at the limit.

In any case, could have been posted already but here are some good impressions of both on the Ring:

MC12 would be my chose too! :)
I do not know if the Maserati is easier to handle.
(Marc Basseng said it is similar to a race car.)
But I heard the Enzo is easy to drive (for a supercar) too.
