lol...I saw the video report on that.
the owner of the car is claiming the driver's name is "Dimetri" or whatever and he was the passenger, but the reporter says the passenger has a bloody mouth and there's blood on the driver side airbag and the so called driver was no where to be found.
I had a great laugh at the end. Poor car tho.

I'm only sad when someone crashes a F40 or F50. The Enzo just doesn't move me emotionally. I don't get that "OMG that is one sexy beast and I want one" feel when I see the Enzo as I do with the Pagani Zonda F.

no doubt the F40 is still my dream of Dreams and i will own one before i turn 30 which is in 3 years time....
the Zonda and Zonda F(i still think its crazy what we pay for the small extra changes)..... is a serious work of art...the sound, the look, the passion behind it....is all amazing....
and i do think that zonda has made a serious name for itself in the supercar world against ferrari and Lambo.....
but for me...Ferrari is still the Passion behind supercars..dont know why...but a Ferrari makes my heart sore when i see it.

. I'm sure it would move me if I saw one because even the old and more common Ferraris like the Boxer and Testarossa would move me when I see them.

I've seen several F60's in person. The only thing that struck me was how much smaller they seem when you're standing next to them, as opposed to when you're looking at them on TV or in pictures. Otherwise - they're just as beautiful as you'd expect.

My first thought after I had heard the report was, "Damn - there goes another Enzo".
The Enzo is a fantastic car, a fantastic car. Anyone who is chapping it in a comparison to the F40 or F50 is no different, and no wiser, than someone who complains about the AMG 55's "only coming with an automatic" -- great car, stupid argument, missing the point entirely. IMO.

I'm just saying that the Enzo doesn't have that "omg I gotta have one" feel like the F40 or F50 for me.

This guy could have rented Willow, and wrecked his car without putting other road users in peril. I have seen reports that he owned both cars. All I can think is what a load.

The Sheriff's Department impounded the shredded remains of the Ferrari as evidence. But Brooks said he retrieved one souvenir from the side of the road.
"I have the mirror from the car," he joked. "It's shattered, but I think it's worth $5,000. I'm going to hang onto it."
