Actor Eddie Griffin smashing an ENZO:)

[Jscotty]

Yeah, you guys are acting like that car is totalled but I am almost positive they will fix it.

But of course they will. They are too afraid of carting it off to the junkyard so some schmuck like myself can buy the engine and the wheels for a couple of hundred bucks and bolt everything on a 70's VW.

How do you get "picked"?

god....seriously, i know that Ferrari did not pick him for that car, isnt you cant just buy that car, you get picked? well anyways, I HATE HIM!

Enzo's are quarter flash/three quarters hype. They're also 5 year old used cars. This from the owner after the crash:

Griffin was not injured in the accident, but Sadek was more than a little shaken by the crash, reports People magazine.
"I'm glad Eddie came out of the crash okay, but my dream car got destroyed," Sadek told People.
"I went to my trailer for about 15 minutes and I thought, 'There's people dying every day. A lot of worse things are happening in the world.' "

Big deal! Anyone who has autocrossed more than one season has seen dozens of people miss a corner like this. Unfortunately, the dumbass who designed this course didnt leave any room for error. It was bound to happen. 25% of the R3v kiddies would have crashed into that wall as well.

The car will go back to italy and be rebuilt. At least nobody died.

Whether or not it's a true soundbite or not I have no clue, but E.G. had a sound bite on Letterman that was basically "Undercover brother can do a lot, but he sure can't drive. If anyone has a link to the clip, post it. He earned points for humility by me.

You know, watching that, really did hurt me somewhere deep inside. Sometimes it sucks being an enthusiast lol

But seriousely man! that car is a masterpiece, and he just ruined it, I hope to god they paid Ferrari a hell of alot of money to use that car or buy it or w/e ...

[chucko]

Not really that big of a deal IMO, the owner actually produced the movie and is a rich bastard. It really probably hurt us more than it hurt him. Think about it, if you owned one of those cars would you really let some novice drive it at speed through an autocross course? I'm still not convinced it wasn't staged. Anyways, EG is still the man and he admitted "the brutha needs driving lessons".

I will NOT see "Redline".

The saving grace is that no matter how much that car is worth, you can't do that much damage to it. $150,000 and it will buff right out. Ferrari got a free impact test out the deal.

Unless they are going to build another carbon fiber frame from scratch, that car is junk. No buffing, no spares.

There was a MotorTrend article that forshadows that video:

"Though its brakes are brilliant (stops were only slightly longer than the Porsche's) and its ride-height-adjustable suspension churns out tons of grip (0.96 g), the Enzo proved the most nervous of the trio in our handling tests. Slaloming the car was particularly difficult; once the Enzo starts to slide, it's difficult to catch. Its overall balance is quite neutral--usually a plus--but even Herta said he preferred the reassuring trace of understeer built into the Porsche."

That guy...lucked into minor stardom somehow...

...not the brightest bulb, and apparently not much of a driver, either (though if the folks that let him in that car didn't check him out with a little help from an instructor, they deserve what they got, even if the car didn't :()
