full story here...

Ferrari F430 Scuderia crashed in Germany by workshop employees - Ferrari Sports Cars - Zimbio

damn. So many killed by joyriders from shops, garages and such this year and last

glad driver and pax made it out. looks like a big crash. any impact, espside impact, with a tree can be serious.

these shops often do stupid things like this. this is another reason you don't want to leave the car in the hands of a questionable shop.

i had some electronic work done on my gallardo. the owner of the shop took it out for a 5 min drive. when i caught him, he said the drive was needed to tighten the wheels which were taken off. i just smiled.... never trust anyone with your exotic unless you've been there many times.

Is there some kind of safety rating or fatality analysis for exotics? I know the IIHS has ratings for most wide production cars, but it would be interesting to see how well different higher-end cars stand up to accidents.

Haha. I wish I could see the look on his face when you busted him. I bet he thought you were going to kill him.

Oh gosh, I hope they rest in peace then. The article is written in poor taste then. They question about who's paying for a car and didn't even mention the deaths.

From the article:

"Our source is saying that the 31-year old driver and the 28-year old passenger have learned the hard way what a supercar crash means and both of them were killed on impact. There is no other news on other vehicles being involved in this unfortunate incident but a questions pops into my mind: Who will pay for the damages done to the Ferrari F430 Scuderia? The insurance company or the workshop?"
