You’re a FBI agent tasked with returning a Ferrari F50 safely to a government warehouse following a successful drugs raid.
That’s the £400,000, 500bhp F50. One of only 349 ever built. (If you’re thinking that’s a strange number, it’s one fewer than Ferrari believed they could sell. To keep it rare, see.)
Pop quiz, hot-shot: what don’t you do? What don’t you?
Answer: you don’t crash it into a hedge at 40mph. You really don’t do that.
And, if you do happen to do that, you don’t blame it on ‘bald tyres’. That’s right up there with ‘a ghost fox ran out in front of me’.
Our friends over at WreckedExotics sent these pictures over to us, accompanied by the happy news that the FBI agent wasn’t seriously injured in the crash.
If you’ve not taken a look at Wrecked Exotics before, have a mosey on over – and prepare to weep a little at all the formerly lovely metal mangled into unrecognisable heaps.
Like this heritage edition Ford GT in Russia. What a waste.
Make sure you come back here, though. We’ll miss you…
=] Idiot!
I first read about this on Autotrader and realised that this is one of the funniest incidents ever, partly due to the guy not being injured, odviously.
WreckedExotics is an awsome website, some of the crushed metal is unbelievable, you wonder what caused the crash and probably get addicted to the site.
If this was in London i wonder if he still had to pay the C-Charge?
oh lord. 40? thats pretty pathetic. Should have done it at at least 70
Stupid americans. If it was MI5 or MI6 or the british equivalent, this would be zooming around not crashing. Still, at least he got a drive in this lovely car, even if it was prematurely ended
just seen the GT……..wot a TW@T!!!!! then again it probably had some reliability problems like JC’s
straight onto fifth gear site!
ha ha fünften Gang ganz
fifth gear translated using google translater
ha ha fifth gear all the way
Speaking about crashes, I stumbled upon this very tasteful video:
Worryingly, this video kept me laughing for ages.
He won’t be getting a promotion any time soon:)
If it were an MI6 agent he’d still be stuck in traffic.
Still, a tribute to the colossal dumbassness of someone who has no idea what he is doing.
More to the point couldn’t they just have trailered it? Now they won’t be able to sell it to supplement their budget.
C’mon, its only a high-powered supercar… Oh wait, its a ferrari f50! Blame the donuts…
DOH …………………..DOH…………..DOH
me again ,do you think his mates and colleages took the piss after ? hmmm. i think so …!
The poor guy who did this must feel like a right muppet.
ah well no one died not like ferrari will notice one car not being sold – that’ll cost that mans house, wife, kids pets to pay for that to be repaid! could’ve been worse
just seen the Ford GT crash – looks like its been through a crusher no doubt it were the tyres fault, or the driver was trying to copy jeremy clarkson POOWWEER!! sliding round bends so it’ll be his fault, obviously it won’t be the drivers fault though because it never is….
And the americans tell us they have better cops than we do. Idiots.
Bloody Pigs!!!
Tit.
The drugs wasn’t all that successful then.
The drugs ‘RAID’ wasn’t all that successful.
)
(sorry
The Drugs ‘RAID’ wasn’t all that succesful
‘Just get it home’. ‘I get it, Homer out’.
Its just the Ferrari is too complicated for them.
owh yes, i forgot:
Why’d you drove it in the first place you twit. Its a CONFISCATED ITEM. So, you think just because you’re an FBI cop you can just have fun with it, eh?
YankeeDoodle has a point. It’s a confiscated item, so it should have been towed. Also, assuming that FBI agents don’t just bullshit to cover their own sorry asses, and the car did indeed have bald tyres, why was he driving it in the first place? it wouldn’t have been road legal.
So Mr FBI agent: Either ‘fess up and admit you’re absolutely sh*te and shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near a car, or stand by your BS and face charges for the traffic offence (that is, driving a vehicle unfit for road use on a public road).
Amricans aren’t used to high powercars that actually turn when you turn the steeringwheel…
Steven: true. When they drive a mustang, they think “Well a corner is coming up in about half a mile, so if I turn the wheel, boot the throttle and give full lock countersteer I should just make the corner”. Doesn’t work in a car that’s made by people who knew what they were doing.
Actually there IS an element of truth in that. Didn’t a Mustang get into the Guiness World Records for the longest drift – over a mile long?
@YankeeDoodle: wouldn’t you? Imagine: F50 standing there, winking at you, you got the keys in your hand… Resistance is futile.
he was injured after the crash by his superiors
It was an FBI agent, they usually have a stack of hay where their brains should be. No wonder he carshed it, becuase he is after all a worthless pile of yankee crap!
Damn! Well it didn’t look THAT bad, but i assume it’ll still be quite an expensive repair
Not as dumbass as this DEA agent.
Aah, Wrecked Exotics. I haven’t been on there before or since the PCH Enzo crash (where that Gizmondo guy raced an SLR, lost it and split his Enzo Ferrari in half on a lamp post and mysteriously vanished…).
If you’re going to crash a Ferrari F50, at least lose control at 70mph or something cool. Maybe whilst smoking any drugs not found in the raid that were concealed in the glovebox.
ouch got 2 hurt
I’ve love to crash a Ferrari.
eh… interesting ))
