Yeah it does suck, I can only assume the "wreck" model was shoddily built or perhaps a previous test mule. Who knows if it even had the real drivetrain/interior.

Im pretty sure they mostly use real cars for movie scenes.
I guess that is one the reasons movies budgets are up in the $millions.
They had if i am correct, 5 identical Ferraris 575's for the movie Bad Boys II.

Actually IIRC, they used both 550's and 575's, they probably thought no one could tell them apart.
