He’s the Swedish criminal-masquerading-as-tech-executive at the smoke and mirrors company Tiger Telematics, makers of the Gizmondo game console, and who, on a fateful day in February 2006, propelled a Ferrari Enzo at 200 mph into a pole on the Pacific Coast Highway, an event which resulted in a criminal investigation that unraveled his illicit empire and launched a thousand internet memes, amongst them our very own Save The Enzos campaign.

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.

This weekend it has been a major sport car show in Malmö in south of Sweden. Anyway. This tape was recorded after closing time when a Ferrari F50 was followed by some young twats in Beemers, Ricers and Porsches. SWEDES ARE HEARBY BANNED TO DRIVE ONE OF A KIND FERRARIS."

Stefan Eriksson, the former Gizmondo executive, who goes by other names including "Fat Steffe" (in Sweden), "Ferrari Steffen" (in the US) and "The Evil One Who Destroys Beautiful Things" (in Maranello, Modena Italy), was transferred to a detention facility outside of LA on December 13th as he awaits transport...

Mr Karney, as some of you surely recall, was present at the scene of the infamous Ferrari Enzo crash in Malibu, but reported to police that he was in fact a passenger in a Mercedes McLaren SLR. Not only that, but he too saw the totally fictional Dietrich flee up into the hills. Turns out that Karney IS Dietrich. Well, not exactly, as Eriksson admitted in court that he was in fact driving the Enzo drunk at 160 mph when he then cleaved the the Italian exotic in half with a telephone pole. And Karney was arrested for being the passenger. So that makes Fat Stefan Dietrich and Karney Eriksson. Whew, glad that's sorted out. More hot facts after you leap. More »

But wait, that's not all...as is want to happen in cases of supercars on rough roads, being driven like an arse and road rallyes, the
"hand-built Ferrari, only 399 of which have been built, then careered into a Volkswagen Golf."
Yet again, these Golf's need to stop getting in the way of out-of-control supercars, whether piloted or not. Whether in Macedonia or the Queen's realm — can't they see the problems they're causing? Luckily... More »
