    Maybe add a zero to that?

    Doesn't look like any skid marks but maybe the guy was trying to make the turn and then hit rumble strips and oversteered into the pole. Those guys are pretty lucky.

    Heya mate. I dont know the persons involved and they are not on Fchat either. :):)

    The crashed happened in Adeliade, South Australia. A long way from here, but news does travel fast! :p:p

    There are some Aussie Fchatters that live in Adelaide that brought this to our attention last night. :):)

    Yep, Ferraris, like ALL import cars to Australia are very expensive! :(:(

    AU $250K is currently US $156K with the current exchange rate. :):)

    161 Ferraris currently for sale here. All in Aussie dollars. :):)

    In this situation, it looks like the car did what it was suppose to do.... crumple up and absorb the impact energy so the driver/passenger could walk away.

    Too bad for the car though.... some people should not be allowed to have a license to drive.
