    OMG... that's just PAINFUL to watch.... I just don't get it. WHY?????

    Surely someone would have bought that car, for SOME price, regardless of
    condition. I just don't get why it would be destroyed like that.

    Just had my 328 out for a winter cold drive today.... may she live a great many
    years more and not face this horrid fate.

    Maybe they thought it was a fiero?

    Maybe they hate making money off rare body parts?

    Maybe they just wanted to crush a Ferrari.

    Getover it people!!

    This is NOT,repeat NOT a real Ferrari 308!!!

    It's a kitcar replica based on the Pontiac Fiero(The fuel filler caps the giveaway)and it should be crushed!!!

    Seems kind of dumb. Why not break the car down and sell the parts.

    Yep. Kit. Also note the full louvers on a "GTB" and the strut suspensions.

    Someone should have had the sense to do this before they wasted all that money on Bondo and fiberglass!

    I didn't notice the filler cap either but was going to say if it was a real one it looked like a glass car. Something looked odd though. Glad that one is gone!!

    Good one! I find it hilarious that so many find it neccesary to announce that their message was sent from their I-phone. BFD LOL Lost

    On the contrary, it was most enjoyable to watch.

    Judging by the reg plates in the background, it's a UK yard. In Italy, the cops would have sent the thing to the crusher. UK police have been known to crush uninsured vehicles after due process.

    I only found it to be enjoyable after reading down further that it was a fake. Must admit a cringe and a sigh at first seeing a gtb or any Ferrari being crushed without merci.
