Yikes!! The car can take a heavy shunt and protect the idiot inside rather well though.

Well of course it does. Ferrari wants the owner to drop another million when they total their first Enzo.

The guy doesn't know how to drive... I can't believe they let him behind the wheel!

The video didn't stream very well but why did they set up so close to a cement barrier? They also totaled 2 Carrera GT's in the filming.

Sounds like the movie will be out on DVD a week after it hits the screen and they needed more loses against DVD sales.

I guess they could always take the rear end from this one and the front end from the one that the so called Swedish millionaire cut in half in Malibu last year and combine them, perhaps coming up with a complete Enzo.

Yep, and 30 years from now Sports Car Market will have 4 pages devoted to debating its true provenance
