Aston Martin Rapide Totaled



It never takes too long for someone to destroy cars like this. The Aston Martin Rapide is one of the fastest and arguably the most beautiful 4-door sedan on the road today. Apparently the traction control really does work--and the button to disable it is one to avoid. Thanks to our buddies at WreckedExotics.com for this nugget.

Here's some pictures Almost Everything Autobody took of a Rapide when we were at Laguna Seca for the American LeMans Race:

Ferrari FXX Crash at Laguna Seca



We didn't see this crash while we were at the track this month. It is supposed to be the first recorded crash of a Ferrari FXX (the $1.8 million street version of the Ferrari Enzo racing car.) According to our friends at WreckedExotics.com, it happened during a special "Ferrari Racing Days" event at Mazda Raceway, Laguna Seca on May 22, 2011. The Ferrari went off the track at Turn 8 "The Corkscrew" and crashed into the tire wall.

Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Stolen & Crashed

Wrecked Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport
How is it that a vehicle who's production can be counted on fingers and toes seems to appear in crash photos just about every month? We at Almost Everything Autobody think that the same cars must be quickly repaired and crashed again to maintain this kind of frequency. Thankfully owners capable of plunking down 2 million dollars or so for one of these Earth-bound missiles are usually well insured.

This particular Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport, according to our buddies at WreckedExotics.com, was stolen in Switzerland along with a Ferrari 599 and a BMW 750iL. They crossed into Germany where they were chased by police and ultimately caught but not until after the Bugatti was crashed into a barrier.

Maybe the Lamborghini Wasn't As Reliable as his Geely Emgrand?



Uh. . . hard to understand what is happening in this video beyond the obvious. . . there are a bunch of guys beating the snot out of a Lamborghini Gallardo.

According to Jalopnik.com, and GTSpirit.com, the owner of the Lamborghini is from Qingdao, China and was upset at the reliability of the Gallardo and the service he received from Lamborghini in China. He bought the car 6 months ago for the equivalent of $600K-700K (USD.) Apparently it stopped running and the local Lamborghini service center had a difficult time diagnosing the problem.

Reliability should not be high on the list of wants for Lamborghini owners. Same goes for Ferrari and any other supercar you can name. We'd love to feel some empathy for the owner. Maybe if he could donate $700K to us we could better understand his pain. In the mean time, we recommend he try China's Geely luxury brand called "Emgrand," example below.

Ferrari 458 Italia Totaled by Football/Soccer Star Louis Saha

Football/soccer star Louis Saha lost control of his 2010 Ferrari 458 Italia after he passed another car while exiting a tunnel on a busy road in England. The crash was at nearly the same spot where former teammate Cristiano Ronaldo also crashed a Ferrari in 2009. Saha barreled into fence on the driver's side of the car. Amazingly, he escaped without injury. The £170K ($275K USD) Ferrari was not so lucky. Saha currently plays forward for Everton in the English Premier League and also for the French National Team.

Thanks to WreckedExotics.com for keeping us up to date on very expensive crashes.

Ford F150 vs Ferrari--Truck Wins

Driver of the Ferrari 458 Italia says the truck didn't see him and accelerated over the top of his car. Photos, video & witnesses say the Ferrari was on the wrong side of the road trying to illegally get around a line of stopped traffic. The Ferrari had less than 500 miles on the odometer. Preliminary estimate of damage is $25K to the Ferrari. The truck appeared to have minimal damage. Thanks to James Worley for the photos & video and WreckedExotics.com for bringing it to our attention.

New Driver Catches Air--Lands on Neighbor's Ferrari. . . In the Garage

Thanks again to our buddies at WreckedExotics.com for this little nugget. The car on the bottom was a 2003 Ferrari 360 Modena. The truck appears to be a Ford F150 Stepside. We'd hate to see this kid's insurance bill. The good news is the garage door & the Ferrari seem to have provided a soft landing. The story goes that a young man got the truck up to a good speed as he was coming over a hill. The truck flew off the hill and into this garage.
