Do we know how many have been totaled? Actually, have they been totaled? In that price range, no amount of damage should preclude a rebuild...

A little web research shows that he was apparently weaving in and out of traffic at high speeds. His woman was in the car (see pic below). She was slightly injured and flew back to Russia leaving him in the coma in Nice. Now thats standing by her man.
Shes not really that cute, imo. I wish I had a Billion, cause Id do better than crashing an Enzo with that chick.

Is it in bad taste to say "Where's Dietrich?".

Notice how the tree didn't move an inch. Maybe they should start building the Enzo's out of wood instead of carbon fiber

If I had a billion, I'd be crashing with two chicks at the same time; I think if I was a billionaire I could hook that up.
F*ckin' A.

Not that I disagree, but for every one crashed Enzo there are about 10 crashed CGTs.

If CGT's and Enzos keep crashing at this rate, they will eventually be considered expensive and desirable rare cars.

He was probably distracted by the super hot looking hookers that line the Promenade!

Damn, what a tragedy. Something about enzo drivers, rich people with money with no driving skills plus enzo's = tragedies. Guess he was trying to impress the chick and things got too hot for him to handle.

As mentioned earlier, not just rich bozos in Enzos...Porsche GT has attracted it's share of rich bozos as well...maybe this is another way to share the wealth?
