I'm afraid we'll see a lot more of these. This car is an absolute beast, with the performance of a Ferrari F430. Who would have thought 8 years ago that we'd have lots of inexperienced (performance-wise) drivers out there driving F430's with roundels on them? It's not a good recipe.
Please, folks, get yourself to HPDE ASAP if you get one of these. It's a great investment. And all you have to do is change the brake fluid and go.

Why is everyone saying this owner couldn't drive?
I don't see a linked article and we have no clue where this took place. But there was an M5 accident when it first came out, I believe it was in excess of 150mph on the autobahn and ending up rolling several times. That looked about as bad as this or close to it. At that rate of speed anything can happen. Even the best driver will be helpless. That's why it's called an accident. Just my .02 |

Omg! Surprised to hear the driver got out with a few scratches, but thankfully for the car he did!

Anything could have happened to cause this accident- tyre blow out, mechanical failure, another cars fault, a deer jumped out, oil on the road........and the list goes on. To those that like to point the finger- stop and think before you post. Why let facts get in the way of making yourself feel better for being able to control ' 'this beast' . This guy could be a better driver than anyone on this forum for all we know.
