Car:2004 Ferrari Enzo Description:41 year old driver was killed after losing control of his Enzo at 150 MPH. The impact was so great that it tore the car into several pieces. Locals reported having seen and heard an Enzo being driven very hard the day before. Most likely it was the same car. Accident happened on October 30th, 2005. It sometimes takes a tragedy like this to realize how dangerous reckless driving is. This driver, who was able to afford a 1 million dollar car, lost his life to a careless decision. Location:Milan, Italycourtesy of

What a fricken' moron. I have no sympathy for people who try to pull stunts like that, they are putting their lives at risk as well as anyone else who may be out on the road. Go find a race track/road course/etc and not have to worry about killing innocent people if you have to drive that fast.

Looks like a tree of some sort was also a casualty... that ain't just enzo on the road. I hope he didn't breed - maybe he'll be nominated for a darwin award?Also - just think of how many homes Habitat for Humanity could build with a $million... And this asshat scatters it all over the road.

This is why I don't attempt to find out what the max speed I can hit in my Vibe is. Think about this next time you are trying to hit our 135-140mph limiter on your Vibe.

Does an Enzo use premium gas or can you get away with regular?

I feel about as sorry for him as the spider I squashed in my garage... none. He beat his million dollars into a tree and died. Selfish, ignorant, are just a few words I can use to describe that.

In all honesty myself... if I had a fast powerful car and the courage to get behind the wheel and actually drive it... I'd probably be out there driving pretty fast to. When you think about it... 150mph isn't all that fast. I know I've been in a car going 130mph and it was no Enzo lol...But yes, take that speed to the track. thats where it belongs.

Do they make body kits for the Enzo? Hell, I own an Enzo so if I really wanted, I could go buy a body kit factory if nobody makes one for my car! But I sure hope I don't have to run premimum octane though.Binary, right on man.

150 MPH on a 2 lane road equals stupidity! Glad he did not take anyone else out with that... There is a time and a place for high speeds, that was not one of them. Enzo would be embarrassed.

I have to say that after seeing a mangled body on the road, I'd rather not see a mangled body on the road again. A guy was walking along the interstate and got hit by a semi, which drug bits and pieces of him for over a mile. I got stuck behind the accident for 4 hours or so. They finally routed us off the interstate but right at the exit where they were diverting us, I still got to see someone picking up this string of bloody remains of that guy and putting it in a baggie.

one of my earlier childhood memories was that of a man being carried from a fliped truck back in ecuador. his truck had hit a cow. hitting a cow is worse than a deer. we all know the damage a deer does. the guy's face wasn't there anymore. i've seen some terrible things.it's weird, for some reason most of my childhood is blocked but this i remember vividly.i feel like i did them about this image.
