DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Well if they had enough money to get an Enzo, then they probably have a couple of other Ferrari's at home to drive until they get a new Enzo.

Here's a small section of what the site says(I thought what they said was kinda funny)

The car — reportedly a Ferrari Enzo worth between $600,000 and $1 million — has a top speed of more than 200 mph.

"It's hard to tell exactly. They think it was an Enzo," Lua said. "It's broken in two."

"Let me just say it was going over 100 miles per hour and maybe double that," Lua said.

Funny thing is, that car in its current condition is still probably worth more than my Scion.

FYI, on the videos for the news reports it says that he was racing a Mercedes SLR. Both cars are capable off 200MPH+ easy.

I was just saying, Thaht if they could afford an Enzo they most likely have to have atleast one other ferrari at home. Also you have to own a certain number of ferrari's before they will even think about putting your name on the list for an Enzo.

when you own car like that you dont have normal insurance, you usually have a bond, or personal liablity policy......but the last time i looked a car like an enzo or in that dollar range with full cover insurance is about 2000.00 a month or more.........

yes, to own an enzo you must be invited by ferrari to own one, atleast that is the way it was when they first came out, now you can buy one out of the dupont registery.

what is crazy is if they were doing the speed the news said that car is in really good condition, notice the "pod" the drivers were in, not much damage to that, ive seen Tc's look worse then that from a 65mph accident......
crazy

News report said in that current condition the car is still worth a quarter of a million dollars. People were out there looking for enzo parts for their own personal collection...lol
