Comedian and Actor, Eddie Griffen, crashed a million dollar Enzo Ferrari during a practice driving session for the filming of Redline, a Fast and Furious style movie with exotic cars. Now, usually the owner of a car of this caliber would be furious, but that’s not the case with Daniel Sadek.
Sadek, a real estate investor-turned-producer, is not only financing the pic to the tune of $26 million, but is also using his own personal car collection for the car sequences. Sadek is putting his Phantom, Lamborghini Murcielago, Enzo Ferrari, Ferrari F430, Ferrari Scaglietti and two McLarens, among others, in the movie and will destroy one of his two $200,000 Porsche Carrera GTs in one sequence.
How anyone can destroy a Porsche CGT and not shed a tear is beyond me?!
View the trailer for Redline below.

Ouch is all I can say. Looks like a crappy movie, but I might get the DVD when it comes out to see the nice cars. :)

I’d be willing to bet that this was a publicity stunt. A wrecked million+ dollar vehicle lands on the front page of cnn, youtube, break and pretty much every website imaginable. Modern times call for modern measures.

That’s one damn expensive publicity stunt… but you’re right… it got Redline in front of eyes that advertising could’ve never done. Don’t know how many folks will see this movie just because of a crash tho. :p
