Wrecking a supercar is not cool at all actually. Not to mention, why would I pay a premium for a car that's been in a wreck? Griffin isn't that much of a celebrity.

I don't see the problem in finding a buyer for this Enzo but probably not at the asking price though. ---- This post has been listed on http://www.DriveCritic.com/ Definitely not a cool enough story for a prospective buyer!

Unlike most rich and/or famous idiots he wasn't driving like an ass on public roads just to stroke his own ego. He was driving on a closed track for a film. And if you've seen the video of the crash one of the first things out of his mouth after the incident is "brother can't drive". And is anybody really surprised the car got repaired? I'd be amazed to learn that any of the crashed Enzos were just left for scrap. Eddie Griffin really doesn’t deserve to bashed for crashing this car.
