They have "cemented" their place in Stupid drivers of all times history.

Testing...

I feel sorry for the car. Sometimes I think that owners of fine machinery should "earn" the right to drive one. Some sort of driver testing and a marque history lesson & test of some sort.

Many a beautiful machine has been destroyed by driver stupidity.

Unfortunately, all it takes is substantial coin to own one.....

Prolly not even close...
Completely scrapping a $M Enzo is not the same as driving a $100k Pcar into hub high wet cement. Or a Buggatti Veyron into salt water...

Did you guys see the video of the Diablo that crashed leaving the Caffeine & Octane show in north Atlanta? It was last spring.

The driver punched it off the light and the back end came around. Did a 180 and slid into the median breaking the rear axle among other things.

If not I'll dig up the link and post. It was painful to watch.

Not an epic fail, but pretty embarrassing!

Here's the link... I was wrong -- it was a Gallardo and not a Diablo.

You can't buy happiness, but you can buy car parts which is kind of the same thing.
