There was an Enzo in Florida that was crashed early on in the US debut of the Enzo. I think certain pieces were sent away for at the factory, but that the repairs were done at an authorized Ferrari facility in Florida.

While I think that the damage to the Griffin/Redline Enzo could've been repaired by experiences technicians here in the states, I don't think it should've been - and I hope it wasn't - repaired by an unauthorized outfit.

I certainly don't think the car - regardless of its shallow, Hollywood-esque provenance - is worth seven figures. It was wrecked; perfect Enzos with blown engines have sold for six figures, so a wrecked one with some limelight shouldn't garner a few extra hundred grand.

mr2guysingh is an unknown quantity at this point

He fixed it with fiberglass front end. Real top notch job, huh?

It does not have a chassis. The carbon fiber tub provides the structual support. If you crack it, then you have to replace it.
