I find that hard to believe.

Not that one got wrecked, but that they actually sold one of those!

Why? There have been quite a few sold, mostly to rich shieks in the middle east.

With money like that it has nothing to do with cost and everything to do with pride...

I heard a blurb on the radio the other day about a shiek who flew his Lambo Murcielago to the dealer in England for an oil change. Grand total $50,000

That crash guy made everything worth while for the few days he was around. He is a true internet hero.

Reminds me of the fool who showed up asking which car to spend $120K on....

The veryon? He should have hired a NASCAR guy to drive it. These guys handle a car going sideways as good as anyone short of F-1.

Damn! I clicked on the spammer's site before I realized it was him. You're welcome for the hit, I expect payment in full.

Is that deliberate mis-spelling alowed under the language guidelines?

You forgot the best part of the story. After they returned the car to the sheik they let him know that they could have just flown out and done it for $3,000. Now thats funny.

I remember that guy!! I think his logic was, "I have wrecked all of these cars, therefore I am a good driver because I now know what to do to not wreck."

...or something else equally convoluted.
