Default Red Ferrari Enzo (Crash vid)

Sorry if this has been posted before.

A Red Ferrari Enzo has been destroyed in a spectacular crash on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu this morning.

Thankfully no one was killed and the only injury was a cut lip from the airbag deploying.

Initial reports suggest that the car was travelling at over 200mph when it left the road.

You can click the link below to view the video.

Warning there is not much left of the car !!!!

It even has a small advert before is starts, only in the US!

Ive you would have seen the crash damage without seeing the car that made it would you have said that it was traveling at 200+mph? I would not have, good luck to the so called passengers for trying to get away with it

Commentry by one of the reporters on the engine block lying in the road: "That's a 16 valve huge V8 engine"

Er, so not only is it a "V8", but it only has 2 valves per cylinder

That would be classed as a very modern egine in the US mate, remember they still use leaf springs on their "sports" cars

I know I was laughing at that as well! Americans! I bet they think terrorists caused the accident!

AFPMSL at letting some random chappy, whom you only know their first name drive your $1,000,000 Ferrari Enzo.

Didn't they say on one of the American reports that there was only blood on the Drivers Airbag and it was the guy who claims to be the Owner/Passenger that had a cut lip??

Yeah, I guess he might get away with it.

Yeh but he might have cut his lip whilst climbing across the car over the air bag to get out the car
