Default Crashed E39 M5

I remember reading about this a few years back in the local papers. Story was that the owner turned off traction control. Obviously he lost control and crashed into a post. The owner didn't die but half a dozen were hurt including a few women who died as they were waiting for a bus.





Rumor has it that the previous owner is offering for $25K negotiable.

What a mofo. Should keep the traction control on on public roads for safety. Especially if you're a tosser that has a too powerful car for own/others good. Hope they got him good.

Orazio Satta Puliga, one of the most important figures in Italian motorcar history to say:
"Alfa is a unique way of living and feeling a car. There is no definition that explains what Alfa really is. You can compare it with those irrational emotions, that sometimes have a human spirit, for which it is impossible to find a logical explanation. We are in the domain of feelings, passion of things that are closer to a man's heart than his brain."
