Well if you thought the pics of that Carrera GT were a heartbreak....

Although I bet that even for Art- it has to hurt to part with that much money.

By status symbol you mean ***** replacement, right?

GURL>..you're crazy.
I love them. One of the best built cars in the world. I'd kill to drive an F50. No computers, no traction control. Just raw car. One of the best super sports cars ever built if not the best.
I love them. Maybe it's all the magnum PI I watched growing up but god I love ferraris.

1. Its not about money its ART
2. This form of art is much more practical then a 198million dollar canvas that sits on a wall.
3. If you guys had the money you would buy **** like that as well
4. **** happens, art will most likely end up fixing it and driving it agian. If you buy a car, work on a car and then drive that car worth a damn you will eventually crash it.
That is life
If you dont crash it you aint driving it for what it is worth...
I give mad props to art, and all the people in this world like him...
I for one wish i had the resources he does..
one thing is for damn sure i would warp a helluva alot more cars then he does.. haha
id wrap lambos just to wrap them..

A beautiful fast car is just as dead when sitting in a garage untouched for twenty years. THe car that hit the wall at 100+ mph gets a more dignified end, and a chance to be reborn 
My opinion; I would rather see fast cars bought by people who are going to take them outside, drive them, and yes in some cases crash them. There's nothing more pathetic than a 600+ HP car sitting in a garage forever as a status symbol.
