Post Crashed Ferrari Fiorano

Car and Driver Preview: Ferrari 599GTB Fiorano
"We get behind the wheel of Ferrari's fabulous new $250,000 GT and...

...crash it!"

"If one could reach back through the veil of time and change the past, it would be at this point that my hand would be prevented from reaching down to the manettino, the steering-wheel switch governing stability control, and shutting it off. Coming back up, I flick the steering wheel to unload the inside rear tire and goose the throttle, the car whip-sawing in a screech of rubber. First one way...
...and then the other. The last milliseconds before impact are busy with desperate corrections, but the 599 swipes the wall with a nauseating crunch. Valente's face is blanched as I clump to a stop, the world suddenly deathly silent."


See I told you guys, traction control is there for a reason... Just be glad its not a $250,000 car that doesn't belong to you

Saw that, too.


I wish they showed a good pic of the damage, though .
