I found this on an older thread on another board. Poster said it was off Mulholland Dr. - that's L.A. right?

Yep.
Hell, I'd rather it end up like that than down the hill.

soo you are saying that a fat ugly tall man with barley any hair on his head who makes things up by himself and present it in such a way that everyone believes him was driving this car .... well .... i believe you :P

Crazy, but i'm assuming that the driver escaped unharmed, so that is good. At least the accident didn't end up like the Enzo crash a while back.
I'm sick of seeing these fine exotics being crashed everywhere. I know its not a new thing, but it seems like its happening more and more.
The exotic car manufacturers need to enforce a special driving lessons course before allowing these people to buy their cars.

Jealous that you cant afford one? They are only cars. Its not like a CGT is such a limited production thing.

Im totally relaxed. I think its funny to hold a car so highly. It is only a car after all. For most people the CGT is no even reality. You may never even see one so its only a dream...and to hold a dream so highly?
No, i definitely cannot afford a CGT although my morgage is about 1.5x a CGT. Ireland and house prices!

The CGT is far from being "like any other car" dude :wink:
Very far.

I would rather watch a movie blow up a CGT on purpose than a careless no skill owner speeding and crashing it.

The owner is probably that movie producer that said he would total his car in one of the scenes as a publicity stunt...

The problem with all those people is that they believe that they're buying "driving special abilities" when they're purchasing a supercar
How can say what other people think when they buy one of these cars? :)
Im sure some people think[like you say] fast car = fast driver.
So you're saying that - afterall - the CGT is just like any another car...... let's say - like my diesel Meriva :roll:
I didnt say anthing like it. I only said it pathetic to have an emotional attachment to something that for all intensive purposes is not real.
Some guy crashed his expensive supercar..boohoo
Theres plenty more of them on the road and plenty more wealthy people to buy them.
You all are talking about 'special tests' to make sure people can drive them...thats just silly.
The fact that most cars are availble to anyone with the cash is a good thing for most people on these types of message boards. You get endless videos and pictures of them because of their wide availability.

The test wouldn't be to see If the buyer have enouth faith or something like that to drive It, but to give the driver the proper skill to drive a supersportcar so the driver can actually drive It instead of crashing it and kill ppl and himself like what happens most of the time.
I can easily understand how these folks get all screwewd on the road... evena lowly 480bhp car like mine can go through the woods at an astonishing rate - and shit happens quickly if you do not keep about 50% in reserve...
But the problem (as dani says) is that 50% reserve for such a car is about 95% pa6ts the abilities of the average driver... and with 0-100mph being a 10s away with the push of the gas pedal, just a little distraction is enough for disaster to strike.
Now put in a little ego, some carelss action and stir with a cell phone or patch of dirt and you have a "CGT slips off the road"... ;)
