Torn in half Ferrari Enzo restored and sold at auction for several million euros

Ferrari

In early February 2016, a 2004 Ferrari Enzo supercar restored after an accident will be available at RM Sotheby auction. The estimated cost of the car ranges from 1.5 to 2 million euros.

The car was originally owned by Swedish businessman Stefan Eriksson, who is more often mentioned in the media not because of his entrepreneurial success, but because of his ties to organized crime.

In 2006, Ericsson was driving along a highway in the US state of California at a speed of more than 250 km/h, lost control and crashed into a lighting tower. The car was literally torn in half, but the driver remained intact and did not receive significant injuries. He claimed that another person was behind the wheel, who fled the scene of the accident.

As a result, Eriksson was convicted on several charges to three years in prison, and it was decided to restore the car. This work was entrusted to the official specialists of Ferrari, who brought the supercar back to life and added a few new details.

In particular, the body was repainted in the color of Nero Daytona and received a red interior (previously it was the other way around - Nero Daytona interior and red exterior). In addition, the car was equipped with a Bose audio system, a rear-view camera, power windows and satellite navigation.

The car is equipped with a six-liter 660-horsepower V12 engine and a six-speed sequential gearbox. Mileage on the odometer is 2500 kilometers.

Note that the value of the Ferrari Enzo is partly due to the rarity of the car - the manufacturer produced only 400 copies.
