:o :(

it looks better with black rims :mrgreen:
how did this happen ?

:lol: :lol: :lol:

LoL... the sad thing is that it's true :lol:

The owner of the car has several other supercars and also owns the only FXX in the Netherlands.

Yeah real shame! :cry:

How did the fire start?

to bad for the car :cry:

:cry:

this ain't the first 599 to burn?

It was on Swiss plates BTW, this owner has more cars on other countries plates.

How unfortunate for the car and driver :( It seems like this was an accident... and I guess that's more acceptable than a poorly executed publicity stunt (I am NOT referring to Eddie Griffin :P )

^ The owner was driving through a local town when he first smelled a scent of gasoline. Not much later, flames were coming out the bonnet and he decided to park the car in the side of the road and call the emergency services. Ferrari already took the car back to Italy to investigate what went wrong, and I heard the owner is already getting a new one..

it's not fair to buy/register cars here and take them abroad :niet:
they have to stay in Zürich area :mrgreen:

That really sucks :cry:

I guess the seats are still good :D

I'll take the seats :lol: Oh, and the prancing horse off the trunk lid.

This is the man who owned the black Carrera GT wich was split in half a few years ago after giving his keys to an unexperienced driver (lady).
