A driver lost control of a Ferrari Enzo traveling along the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu this morning, shearing the car in half as it struck a power pole. The driver of the $1 million car fled the scene with no injuries, while the passenger remained until authorities arrives. The passenger also suffered no serious injuries. “Let me just say it was going over 100 miles per hour and maybe double that,” said Deputy Ishmael Lua. Some photos are available from NBC, while two videos of the aftermath are available from the LA Times.

It looks like Ferrari pre-screens owners of the Enzo, but doesnt check to see if they even know how to drive.

Wow.. Ok well here are a couple things at least this driver was actually driving this car, instead of letting it spoil in a temperature controled garage. Another thing… He is driving down one of the best road ways in all of the UNited states. Another thing Captin AMERICA (THE one who posted stupid ass kid) STF^, Seriously, This is the closest you will ever be to a car like this. You have absolutly now Idea. And Manny U too can STF^ You Would mereley let this wonderfull vechile sit in your damn one stall garage and never drive it, if u owned one. If you are going over a 100mph your reactions are split second, and if your going over 200 mph and you mess up its virtually impossible to “Just steer away” from a Poly…. STUPid ****!

killerfry, youre an idiot… i’d drive it somewhere suatible for a supercar, like maybe THE AUTOBAHN?
and, according to a report i’m reading right now, turns out this was not a stupid kid, but a stupid adult… 44-year-old stefan eriksson, best known as the creator of the gaming device/pda called the gizmondo… turns out, not only was he drunk, but he claims someone else was driving the car and that they were racing a mercedes-mclaren slr… again, not something you should do on the highway…
