Hehehe. I saw a Ferrari at a local hotel (Tampa, not Cheyenne) last night.

Ho hum. Another guy trying to write a visual check that the personality can't cash.

I've driven one or two of them-- save your money. Yes, they are cool. Yes they look good, and some of them are even ungodly fast.

They're just a waste of money for what you get. IMO, only-- of course.

Try that in a pickup truck. You'd have 2 fatalities

The authorities think that the passenger (also the owner) was also the driver. They can't find the alleged driver and only the drivers side air bag deployed. His BAC was just over the legal limit.

Dang there goes another ENZO...........what a sad waste of such a cool car.

I recently saw two of them at the Wynn Hotel in Vegas at the Ferrari dealer inside the casino. They are so cool looking, plus all of the other high end cars that were in there as well. Wish I made enough to play with one of them bad boys.

Nothing like wrecking a RARE Ferrari that you have to be hand picked to own!! Well that is unless you buy it used.

EDIT: I also forgot to mention that I was talking to one of the sales guys at the dealership, and he told me that Tommy Hilfiger wrecked the one that he had and ended up having to get another one. What's with all these dang rich guys not knowing how to drive?!?!?!

200mph into a telephone pole.

The traffic around PCH was insane.

Good thing he didn't hit a Guam power pole. The main line poles are steel, and the distribution/residential poles are rebar reinforced concrete. When people hit these poles they end up with serious injuries and a lot of times they die.

Well, it looks like he must of spun out and hit the pole with the rear of the car. Lucky. I seriously doubt he'd even be breathing through a tube right now if he would of hit that pole with the front or mid section of the car. Lucky, but very stupid. Money obviously cant buy common sence

Yea, I went to the Wynn shortly after they opened. Wasnt impressed. I really wanted to check out the Dealership too. Just wasnt willing to spend the $10.00 or $15.00 (dont remember) to go in to look at some cars. They looked real nice through the window tho

Yeah that was a crap deal having to pay the $10.00 smackers to get in, but I figured what the heck it's only $10 bucks. Plus I wanted to go in the basement and see all the other cars and the service department. Talk about one spit shined shop..........dang you could eat off everything in there!!

Plus the give you a stupid hat for paying the $10
