Default Ferrari Totaled on PCH on Tuesday

Anyone hear about this. Supposedly the guy was driving at over 200 mph (hard to believe) when he lost control of his car and hit a pole. The car did what it was supposed to do and came apart leaving the cockpit in one piece (like a F1 car). The guy was street racing a Mercedes Benz on PCH. The guy was DWI and then sat in the passenger seat as Police arrived, he said that he was the owner but someone he had just met at the bar was driving and took off. He had a bloody nose and there was blood on the airbag; too bad it was on the driver's side. http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/story?se...cal&id=3927255 has a short article with lil information (i got alot from ppl at school whom had also seen this on TV). It also has some pictures. I believe that makes 384 Enzo's left. The last one sold was for 1.4 million if i recall correctly.

Yea im sure thats what is stopping u. Also, the ferrari platform is nerar perfect. Not sure AWD would do enough to be worth the weight.

Wow this story keeps getting more and more shady. The owner has previous convictions of counterfiting and fraud and was involved with the Swedish mafia. Not only that, he owns a SECOND Enzo that a bank is trying to reposses along with the one he crashed.
