    Exclusive: Texas Man Rebuilds $1.5 Million Ferrari Enzo Destroyed By Eddie Griffin

    As part of the run-up PR-fest for Redline, a schlock-fest of a movie, actor Eddie Griffin "lost control" ( can someone say "publicity stunt?" ) of a $1.5 million Ferrari Enzo and crashed it in spectacularly excruciating fashion. The car suffered major front end damage and most considered it totaled due to the delicate carbon fiber bodywork. Not Texan luxury car repair and salesman Matt Groner. No, Groner figured if he could get his hands on the Enzo, it had a fighting chance. As you can see from the picture gallery below, he was right. Jeez, who knew when we launched the "Save The Enzos" campaign, someone would actually save one? The dramatic video of the original incident, pictures of the carnage and Matt's exclusive story of how he brought the Enzo back to life are all below the jump. More »

    Jalopnik Morning Mourning: Pics of the Dead Redline Enzo

    Let me first dispel a few myths. Most important, the car actor Eddie Griffin crashed into a wall, and that is now garishly on display in front of the Grauman Chinese Theater in Los Angeles, is indeed 100% Ferrari Enzo Ferrari. There is no doubt. I touched it. I smelled it. I took about 75 pictures of the poor thing's riven carbon fiber body and chassis. (See below for the fatal scars and wounds that will never heal.) You budding conspiracy theorists out there (Hi Tom Anderson!) had best call Art Bell. Number two, people who visit Hollywood Boulevard on vacation with their kids are not sane in any way. And finally, Hollywood has no shame. Less than none. Make the jump to find out how much less. More »

    Wrecked 'Redline' Enzo to Make Chinese Theatre Appearance

    Apparently unafraid of displaying wrecked exotics to garner notoriety for their film, Redline's promotions types will be holding a vigil for the Enzo cracked up by Eddie Griffin in the days leading up to the premiere of the flick at Grauman's Chinese Theatre. The car goes on display today. The premiere is Thursday. We kind of barely care, but if you're in the area, feel free to stop by wearing your "Save the Enzos" shirts. – Davey G. Johnson More »

    Question Of The Day: What Would You Stick The Enzo Engine Into?

    Eddie Griffin's moderate-speed publicity stunt wipeout of real estate-monger turned B-movie producer Daniel Sadek's gazillion dollar Ferrari means two things. Carbon fiber, while totally light and high tech, sort of blows because a "just needs a bit o'Bondo" smashup like Understeering Brother managed to hoon means the car is totaled. Scrap. Headed for the proverbial junkyard in the sky. But the "accident" also means that another perfectly ballistic 65-degree, 6.0-liter V12 good for 650 horsepower is collecting dust in one of Southern California's many sun-drenched warehouses. To give you a modicum of perspective, AMG needs two intercooled turbochargers hooked up to the same size engine to generate 612 ponies (never mind the TORQUE!) in the just-about-here CL65. So, what do we do with such a mad motivator? Mr. G. Johnson has convinced me that the Enzo engine would be perfectly at home in the back of a WRX wagon. I'm doubly sure of this as I got smoked by an STI just yesterday. But, do you have a better idea? – Jonny Lieberman More »

    Question Of The Day: Was The Eddie Griffin Enzo Crash A Publicity Stunt?

    Spinelli and I were sitting at Starbucks yesterday watching the crash over and over, considering the propensity for understeer those damned wonderful Ferrari Enzos have. Simultaneously we were attempting to answer our own nagging doubts over why someone would erect a concrete divider that close to the track and why it seemed like the "Understeering Brother" was so composed after the accident. It appears we're not the only ones who had some doubts. The star-lovers over at TMZ are asking a question today that we're going to put to you. Was the Undercover Brother doing some Oscar-worthy acting in order to build some publicity for the Daniel Sadek-produced "Redline?" We've re-included the gallery from yesterday below and the compilation video above for further reference. Oh, and by the way...remember...Save The Enzos, save the world.

    Hoon Of The Day: It's The Ferrari Enzo-Killer, Eddie Griffin...Duh

    Although we'd love to just continue showing the Ferrari Enzo crash footage over and over and over again, we thought it best to just show you the three minute preview of "Redline" instead. Because once you know it was the wet dreams of real estate mogul Daniel Sadek that provided the Torque-like desire and money for Griffin taking an Enzo into a wall...well, yeah...there we go again with the crying. Jeez. If you want to see the blow-by-blow again, we've included it below. And also, remember, do your part — because only you can Save the Enzos. – Ray Wert More »

    New Video Of Eddie Griffin's Ferrari Enzo Fender-Bender

    Just because we like to beat ourselves over the head with this stuff, here's some more video of Eddie's little accident yesterday with a Ferrari Enzo, compiled from a number of different sources. If you start bawling like you do when you think of Eddie's performance in Undercover Brother, don't say we didn't warn you. – Ray Wert More »

    Another Enzo Bites The Dust, This Time With Eddie Griffin At The Wheel

    Details are somewhat murky, and we're hearing conflicting reports all centering around one truism — people who don't know how to drive should not drive the Ferrari Enzo. You will crash it, and we will be out one less absolutely magnificent vehicle. Case in point would be actor Eddie Griffin, who apparently just helped another helpless Enzo to its death in Southern California while rehearsing for a movie or some such silliness. We'll have more details as they become available — in the meantime, remember — only you can save the enzos. Oh and by the way, that's a link to video of the crash below. It's safe for work, but it might make you cry. Just sayin'... – Ray Wert More »
