WTF!!!! wat a dumass!!!!!! :D

[bk4uyeah]

for some reason, i dont quite believe it

[Coventrysucks]

It seems feasable to me.

If the crappy Fiat clutch is fried, you don't need to lock it - its not as if anyone can drive it away, and if you are rich enough to afford a Ferrari, you are rich enough to replace anything left in the car.

He probably went off to find a phone or get one of those nice whole sheep heads to eat.

Note the Gumball 3000 decals on the side...

There's still a clutch - it's just automatic.

wow, if i saw an empty unlocked Ferrari enzo in the middle of now where i would go back to town buy a trailer come back and steal it, and hold it ransom for 2 million dollars than once i recieved the ransom i would buy a working enzo and make the wrecked enzo owner pay for the trailer i bought :p

no but seriously i would at least keep it for a few days :p

he probably fried it whe he decided he was a good enough driver to do 0-60 in 3 seconds, then he realized he sucks

[cuntukimushroom]

now thats not how to treat an enzo

[Egg Nog]

That's a shame... a new car shouldn't fail like that, no matter what the situation. I guess the really strange part is that he disappeared :)

Well Iceland is a small island.
You couldn't take it anywhere and with the limited number of roads it woul dbe hard to do anything with it.

Typical Nordic police attitude though...... hey fast car lets all go have a look.
I was at the launch of the Viper in Stockholm many years ago and in the evening there were lots of police round to look at the cars :)

If it was me who found it first, then I'll take tons of pictures including my name on the wheel so that I can pass Egg Nog's ownership test :p

i doubt it was the clutch considering the only way the driver could fry the clutch is if the computer screws up. it was likely the alternator, many have failed so far in the Enzo, i believe its a german part. in fact i have read two magazine reviews where it broke during their tests. still doesnt explain the unlocked doors, unless they only lock electrically.
Or he just ran out of fuel.
PS; the enzo at the auto show in stockholm(?) had gumball stickers and strange plates on the rear but english registration on the front, registration which matches the red Enzo in the pics of the gumball start in Paris. So i dont think this car went on the gumball.

PS#2; does europe have strict laws on the color of blinker lights? all the european enzos have orange blinkers (center of the outer lights) but the american versions have white blinkers that light up orange.

No. Well not in the UK at least.

There are no laws governing the colour of the indicator lens.
As long as the bulb visably flashes orange you're fine.

i have pics of it somewhere in my enzo thread, it looks good, but the factory wheels already look the best in my opinion so i would never change them

and besides WEst coast customs, another company modified an enzo with black rims, and a sticker on the windshield
