Ferrari Enzo crashes into Canadian lake
Original Text by Jalopnik

A rare custom Ferrari Enzo (itself already more rare than steak tartar) — claimed to be the world's fastest — crashed into a Canadian lake earlier today as part of the Targa Newfoundland race. No word on any injuries, but the doors are open so that's a good sign.

The drivers of the car were competing in a stage of the 1,300-mile Targa Newfoundland rally race today when the Enzo lost control and pulled a Bugatti Veyron lake crash by flying into the body of water pictured.

Not only is this a rare Ferrari Enzo, it appears to be the an even more distinct Edo Enzo XX owned by Canadian exotic car dealer Zahir Rana of ZR Auto. The car was tuned to be like a streetable Ferrari FXX.

$1.5 million Ferrari Enzo crashes into Canadian lake This custom Ferrari (shown here before the crash) produces 840 hp and can run to 62 mph in just 3.2 seconds with a top speed of over 240 mph. Rana has pushed his cars before and it's a race, so speed was potentially a factor in this crash.

Too bad the driver of the Enzo couldn't pull off a Cannonball style skim across the water.

Roland Linders was apparently driving when the crash occurred.
