While practicing for a charity race to promote his new movie Redline, comedian Eddie Griffin crashed a rare $1.5 million Ferrari Enzo. I guess the Undercover Brother never learned how to drive a stick. 1 of 300 in the junk yard

however I'm considering if he got better press from this than could be done with an actual 1.5 mill movie promo campaign. It sounds stupid but seriously, think about it, he's all over the news for now and people are talking about it.

True. I would still feel like shit no matter how much $ i had if i wrecked an Enzo. Does anyone even know what Redline is about?

crash a 5 million dollar car.. then we will talk.

Why, have you done it?

the Enzo was 1.5

other than a rare collectible, or if you are franchising a spot in racing, the only new car I know of with a price tag over 5 mill is the new Maybach Exeloro owned by Quincy Jones and a few others

http://money.cnn.com/2007/01/24/autos/f ... /index.htm

The newest fastest car (outside of formula racing) I have heard of is the Koenigsegg (forget which model) that beat the McLaren speed record

price: close to $800,000

~edit~

the Bugatti beat the koenigsegg

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bugatti_Veyron

this one is 5 million pounds (roughly 10 mill U.S.)

but I think the Koenigsegg is still a better buy, more stylish too :p

~edit~

I was gonna post a thread here about this yesterday but didn't think anybody would care lol. This was very upsetting to me.

Enzo is a rare collector car, and EVERY Ferrari owner out there will be upset about this. I've seen Enzos go for $7 million on Ebay. Watching the video of the wreck...is just painful.

If I were a multimillionaire the Enzo would be one of the first cars in my collection. I would never let anybody drive it. If I were that owner, I'd be pissed the crash didn't kill Eddie Griffin, because that means I'd soon have to go to jail for murder

oh yea, don't get me wrong here, I'd be pretty pissed if someone crashed my car no matter what make/model.

Redline looks like another shitty movie about racing high end cars. :p

The crash itself sucks, I'd be pissed too if that were mine. Then again I dont think I'd let anyone drive it but myself.

Its also funny that the person that owned the car, didn't care. He also didn't mind wrecking one of his two 911 carrera's for the movie. Granted they are just material objects...

i think wrecking the car to help find a cure for some kind of diseas or some kind of medical funraiser would be pretty neat, but for a movie... wth.

Yeah i saw this on TV in a commercial for Fox Q New Detroit. I just had no idea who crashed it lol. I had no idea because it was a commercial for the news and you know how that goes "Find out what Star was behind the wheel of this car when it crashed"

i hate the news. they always do that, then they save that story for last, so you are sitting there for an hour waiting to hear who wrecked the damned car!

actually, the newest fastest car is the Bugatti Veyron

comes in two versions as far as i read a 1080hp and a 1150hp
after 262mph the car loses stability so they just said it caps at 262mph
it basically runs on 2 sets of V8 engines, 2 V8 blocks side by side to create a W16 engine with 64 valves and 4 superchargers
