Ash never implied the guy was claiming to be owner. Maybe he talked to the owner or was nearby or heard the story?

So the story is that it just randomly started on fire? I have heard of that happening on old beaters that overheat...but for a million dollar car, I would expect it wouldn't spontaneous combust.

lol almost all exotics come from the factory with the "spontaneous combustion" feature. You hear more abotu them randomly burnnig down then driving.. Porsches are known for their engine fires... even in their base Boxters. Lambos I think are more known for mechanical failure tho?

Mine was 27k, I bought it myself and its nearly paid off. His is 100k+ and if he's selling SFU books, he did'nt buy it. He beaks about a repost, he gets beaked back and a legit reason for the beak was given :)

But in response to your beak.. I'd much rather have my "grocery getter" motor fall out due to front wheel hop on cold VHT than my "supercar" engine spontaneously combusting on the highway, or my vehicle randomly breaking down because it's a chrysler product at heart ;)

It wasn't just an Enzo. It was tuned by Edo Competition, making it that much more of a waste.

maybe he has another one at home! too much trouble to claim this one.......

Smoke Show

depending on how rich he is.. claim it as a tax right off instead of an insurance claim... i dunno. but then again rumors will be running wild i'm sure

Tom Budd's Enzo was stock, it was not tuned by Edo!

The yellow Edo Enzo is having it's motor rebuilt to FXX spec's. It will have 860HP and will be done later this summer.
