This picture of a banged-up Ferrari Enzo is enough to make any car lover shed a tear.
The rare million-dollar vehicle was involved in a crash in Stamford, Connecticut on Monday when a mechanic took the sports car out for a ride and spun out of control.
The car's owner, 71-year-old mattress company mogul Michael Fux, had placed the prized car in the care of Greenwich dealership Miller Motorcars.

- Some classic Ferraris have sold at auction for $12,000,000
- Miller Motorcars will soon get mail from an attorney…
- You can buy a used Ferrari 308 GTS for under $40,000 - but not but not a Testa Rossa TR250, 250 California, or an Enzo
- MM is in deep stuff - there is no pony under all that crap
Like the pic at post 12?
M. Fux will soon own a motor car company in Ct.
The last 250 GTO was a private sale - rumored to have sold for $17 million.
You are correct, sir! Car Guy points for you.
- There ya go sports fans - now we’re talking real money -
- Good post...
Some guy was oooohing about some new Jaguar and my reply was to check back in 50 years and see whether that Jaguar or my 1957 Bel air will still be on the road :)
Will it end up at Gas Monkey Garage?
At least the owner can sleep easy!
He did fix it.....it was just not using tools....haha...”Jefferson with the tackle, Jefferson over the middle.....Jefferson, Jefferson....” hahaha
The car’s proper name from the factory is the Enzo Ferrari. Look it up.
God, I hope not...
Seems to me there was a time when GTO’s were worth a lot more than that. Although $17 million is still a lot, and it won’t buy a house in any neighborhood someone who could afford that car would live in.
Fux is going to sue the Fluke out of that company.
"Oh well, Fux to be you." - Mechanic
You’re right.
Being this is a high end shop in Connecticut, I’d bet they are pretty well covered.
And likely the owner has it insured for a decent amount also.
LOL.
