Here at Wrecked Exotics, we've seen our share of crazy drivers, but even we were taken aback when an anonymous tipster let us in on what is surely the most insane exotic car owner in the world.
We proudly present to you: The "King of Wrecked Exotics", a 73 year old Florida businessman who has managed to destroy at least 10 exotic cars in the last 3 years.
We of course would be honored to shake the hand of the man who, despite being involved in some horrible wrecks, has managed to walk away from each one AND still have the balls to keep driving like an insane bat out of hell. And did we mention he's 73 friggin years old?
We only have photos of 3 of his wrecks, but we've listed all the other supercars he's managed to destroy. These are some unbelievable and rare cars.
He crashed this Ferrari 360 Spyder into a water fountain near the entrance of his mansion.
This Ferrari 360 Spyder was destroyed when he crashed it into a palm tree at 60 mph.
He was racing a Lamborghini Gallardo when he rear-ended a Ford F-350 Superduty in this Ferrari F355
Here are the other cars he destroyed:
A Bugatti EB110 he crashed at Palm Beach International raceway
He completely destroyed a Ford Indigo concept car, which he purchased at auction. There were only 2 ever made. Ford owns the other one
Wrecked a classic Ferrari Dino
A Ferrari F430 was wrecked on the track
Yes, he even managed to wreck a 1909 Ford Model T
Only around 50 Yenko Camaros were ever built, and he wrecked one of them too
In addition, he's also wrecked a couple of Caterhams and a Westfield Sports car on the track
Apparently, he has partial ownership of an insurance company. Not sure if he can even get insurance from his own company, but when you're rich enough to wreck several exotic cars, it doesn't really matter anyway.
Ha! I had forgotten about Magoo!
WHY is he still on the road?
Imagine how many people he may have injured!
Eventually he will hurt people if he has not already.
I'll bet it's more than mine.
He obviously has money to afford those cars.
I doubt he cares about his car insurance rates.
Just imagine what it costs him to insure those rare cars.
Trust me - if you had to BE that idiot in order to have his money, you wouldn’t make the trade.
I'd make a trade for one of 'em. Trade ya?
Agreed. The Gallardo’s V-10 block is supposedly cast in Hungary and has lots of VW parts. I kind of like the Gallardo. I think it may be the best Lambo ever made as far as a road car. The past Lambos did not have very good chassis for handling etc.
I totally agree about the F355 being one of the prettiest Ferrari by far.
The 458 Italia? Mama Mia!
4.5 litre V8 putting out 570 bhp!
The Stradale is also very pretty and very capable. They should have kept Raikkonen. He made the awful F60 look decent.
Freaking crime against humanity. Those Ferrari’s are built by hand and with a lot of care. Working at the Ferrari factory is one of the most coveted jobs in italy.
This moron treats them like soda cans. Disgusting.
That second pic is a Porsche, not a Redhead...a Koenig 911 turbo cabriolet I’d wager.
(Porsche 911 owner and daily driver)
I cannot imagine an F355 hitting an F-350. The F-350’s are monster sized. Did the old dude not see it? File on the WTF file.
Is he suicidal, a very, very bad driver or does he have a vendetta against exotic cars?
At the very least, you’d think the guy would eventually figure out that he’s wrecking into a lot of trees and needs to change his driving strategy. Amazing someone like that would be able to attain wealth in the first place, honestly.
The money must be in a trust that doles out the money or something. This guy is a total idiot or a drunk. I mean how does he wreck a Model T? They go about 20 mph. A real testament to airbags - he would probably be dead.
Not to mention the crumple zones ...
“And to think, this is the kind of fellow Obama wants to tax to death.”
Maybe this is his way of “going Galt.” No better way to take money out of Obama’s hands than to spend it in Italy and destroy what you bought.
360 Spyder
I was just guessing on the Koenig aftermarket...could be Kremer or any other.
it’s not a GTR...they don’t come in ragtop
and given this guys taste I’d figure it was a turbo instaed of a entry level or even an S model normal aspiration 911
That is an inappropriate question. The LE doesn’t enforce the illegal aliens from driving without insurance, why should they enforce a rich old geezer?
