what is it about this sort of suspension that deems itself worthy of the carrera gt and enzo and performance automobiles of the like? anyone know what it is that makes it so much better than a direct coil over suspension...?

Weight. As far as I can tell, those pushrods are much lighter than shocks and eliminate unsprung weight. Also, since the shock is mounted inboard, it is easy to use remote reservoirs and such. I'm sure there is more too it than this, but that is my "basic" answer. I'm sure there are things I missed.
