Gonna say: 360 Challenge Stradale
ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Webb Bridge Road was closed for part of Friday morning after a Ferrari crashed into the woods off the road.
Police said the 18-year-old driver, Akshay Panducherry, and his 21-year-old passenger, Harshavardhan Patlolla, were able to crawl out of the car.
Both men were airlifted to Grady Memorial Hospital with serious burns.
“The vehicle itself is totally destroyed,” Alpharetta Police spokesman George Gordon said. “It went completely up in flames and it basically is not recognizable as a vehicle at this point.”
Police said they believe speed was a factor in the crash, which happened just before 4 a.m.
Police said the car was too damaged to immediately determine the year and model of the car, but they are working to determine that information.

458 Stradale. I win. Maybe. Do I?
Attention journalists of the world, "totally destroyed" is redundant.

Fixed. Notice it is a quote.

Fine, attention junior high grammar teachers.
In reply to pilotbraden:
Might be a purchase for my boss. Those front brakes and front wheels are probably still good...
I change my vote.
Now a 430. Tell by the front bumper vent:
Those wheels and brakes say 360 scud
Why did I say 458!? I totally meant 430! Gah. I can't brain today.
In reply to wearymicrobe:
Those wheels were standard on a 360 Challenge Stradale. They were also an option on 430s

I was thinking the same thing, based on the wheels.
How the real Ferris Bueller would have panned out.

Wheels are still worth more than any car I've ever owned.
For a lower level of difficulty
Daredevils Engage in an Actual ‘Need for Speed’ Race
I am just happy they used Need for Speed instead of Fast and Furious.
It's 100% a 430. The guy's nam that owns in is rashkish or something like that. I did a nitrogen pressure check on the car last week. He is a really nice Indian kid, a bit spoiled but wasn't at all a doucher to me. He also has an Aston Martin.
Any rate I heard about the accident on the way to work and heard it was on Webb bridge. It just so happens that is the way I take to work and it's about 3 or so miles from the shop.
First thing I thought was it was that kid, rashkish. I saw the skid marks on the ground at about 7:30 this morning. It was a at the beginning of a slight right turn and went across the two lane road and into the tree line. The car had been rotating under braking because the marks were crossing over each other. The speed limit is only like 35 or 40 right there in front of that school.
if not usable on a car the wheels, calipers, and hood badge will make nice "decorator" pieces.
Those carbon rotors are still a good $3-5k each, calipers a good $2,500 each, wheels about $1000 each, front bumper a good $2,000 in it's current shape...
It says his father gave him that car on his 18th birthday.
Last week.
My 18th birthday present from my parents: NOTHING.
Nothing applies to my 17th, 16th, 15th, 14th....

Thanks for reminding me why I like admiring Ferraris as long as they're not in my garage.
And I thought 911 stuff is expensive.
