    Well sort of... crash tested...didn't know if this was already posted but I've seen it a few times this week so I figured it was fairly new.

    From the front end damage it looks like it might have been an off-set crash test.

    I guess they took wheels that were just lying around instead of wasting perfectly good new wheels ...

    Got a deep "v" in the center of the front end - unlikely it was an offset, as one side would be smashed badly leaving the other more bent than smashed...

    that's the 5 mph bumper test to determine repair cost statistics! Doesn't look good.

    5 mph, how do you know that? Looks like it was going faster than that.

    I thought there was some exemption when you sell only X amount of cars? What happens to them now?

    I totally agree on the color... it's sick (and not a good kind of sick). Is that color actually on any other Ferrari? May look OK on something else, but BAD on this car.

    Guess that makes sense... kind of like tagging the car as a test or crash car.
