The chances of most normal people owning a $300,000 Ferrari are minimal. To be fair, the Ferrari 458 Speciale is not particularly rare by “rare” car standards — about 2000 will be made during its run — but when you crunch the numbers, a $300K car that has a limited production run of 2000 at best will only end up in the hands of collectors and the elite. So, owning one of these beauties is going to be difficult. You’re a lottery winner, in essence. But you know what’s harder than owning a Ferrari 458 Speciale? Finding a Ferrari 458 Speciale and backing over itwith your own car. Yes, it’s the worst fender bender ever.
Here it is again in all of its soul-crushing glory:

That’s the story coming out of Great Falls, Virgina, where a woman and her family backed her classic Mercedes-Benz over the Ferrari in a parking lot. Naturally, the owner of the Ferrari, who’s probably looking at a few grand (at least) in repair bills thanks to this parking mishap, wasn’t pleased.
“Are you serious? Are you f*cking serious?” The man asks, incredulous as he takes in the scene. “That’s about the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen.” The woman who backed over his precious automobile is clearly horrified at what happened, and says, “Oh my God, I’m shaking.” And she is. Hopefully the man realized that it was an accident, collected insurance info, and went about his day. This sucks, but when you have a $300,000 Ferrari, it’s not like you’re going home to Ramen and a pile of bills to stress out over.
