NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you think his insurance will just total the car? I think I could fix it ... my old man has an awesome set of tools.

You might need more than a tv repairman to fix that, though.

The guy that built the cage in my Fiero and Miata had a guy bring a 550 to him he bought from an insurance company (some guy tried to see if he could wrap it around a telephone pole). Ferrari won't sell crash parts to individuals. They had to buy parts from Prodrive Racing in England, who built 550's for the European and American LeMans Series.

Help me get back to TEXAS!!!

I'd love to go out there ans snatch the engine.

How many of those things were made? That is second one that I have seen torn in half. Does the $1,000,000 car breed stupidity, or is there a flaw in the car?

Top speed of 235mph. Not hard to make a mistake when you're going those speeds.

There was an Enzo crash in Houston back in 2004 I remember reading about on FerrariChat that was pretty nasty. Car caught fire and was toast.

Here is the pic of that one:

400 were made, and IIRC, 70 of those were in the US. Make that 68 now.

Did someone post about a "cage" in a MIATA!?

I wonder what that engine is worth now...
$50K?

Best Darth Vader impression... NOOOOOOooooooooo!

the car gigem is talking about was a customer of ours at hennessey. I was working there at the time and had been over to detail his enzo several times. As you can see there wasnt much left, and the best part is all the kids from the allen parkway projects were selling the remining pieces of carbon fiber to the houston ferarri guys who were trying to salvage any piece of the wrecked enzo.

No sweat of his shoulders though..what did he do after wrecking the car he payed 1.0m+.... he bought another one. Saw it not too long ago.

Dude hit a power pole at 100mph+, ripped the car in half, and then ran off after the accident.....wow.

No, he did not run off. His german friend Deitrich that was driving ran off. He had just met him.

he bought another one

Rumor is he paid nothing for the next one. The first one was "defective" so he got another one under warranty.

Out here in LA, they've reported on who the car owner is. They prefaced it with, other people who own this $1 million car are people like Nicholas Cage, Steve Wynn (I guess that explains the Ferrari Dealership in his Casino), and they listed a few others.

Here's what my wife said about the owner of the crashed Enzo. He's not somebody famous, just rich.

yeah defective as in being a dumbass that doesnt know how to handle that car in a downtown turn... jamail is a ******, and everyone of his cars smells like dank dank weed.

although it was cool to meet willie nelson while we were over detailing the Enzo. He comes over a couple times a week to jam with jamials sh*tty band.

It was his kid, not him that wrecked it.

old man jamails kid ... Dhar jamail (the owner) is into his 40's, this wasnt a teenager.

I thought you meant the older one crashed it. I just heard it was his kid, didn't know his age.

This just get's funnier. They're now saying he was going about 162 mph at the time of the crash. Which explains why the wreckage was so spread out.

Wanna see what an idiot looks like?

BTW - this is only one of the two Enzo's the Swedish Millionaire brought into the US.

Just noticed that they finally got my AG TAG thing done.
