    If you want a Ferrari, you want a Ferrari. Personally though, I'd be happier with a cheaper car with more brainpower of its own to avoid getting overly intimate with walls and obstacles. Not so bad that it drives itself for you of course, but something like a LanEvo that will apply the brakes and torque judiciously to help you steer where you want to go.

    But like I said, I know that if you want a Ferrari, that's all that matters, regardless of how unforgiving it may be to imperfect drivers.

    Look at the bright side... this might cost less to repair than that Veyron the dude in Texas drove into a salt marsh recently, and repairing mangled Ferrari body panels will certainly cost less than shipping the salty Veyron back to France, having the corrosion, water-locked engine, shorted electrics and briny interior replaced, and shipping it back.

    Happy Turkey Day, or around my house, Turducken Day!

    Ferrari 360's seem to have a tendency to run into walls, as does the one in this video.

    Before the Ferrari are two neat burnouts.

    Could it be the richer you are, the worse at driving you are?

    By this logic, Bill Gates probably never drives period, while some random homeless person in Anybigcity USA could probably be the ten times F1 Champion...if someone gave him/her a chance.
