Default Crashed Ferrari Coffee Table

Cool and sad at the same time, check out this crashed Ferrari turned into a coffee table (link below for the making of) Doesn't say what model it is, any good guesses?

I do like automotive art. I have a Ducati 916 in my living room as proof. Not sure I'd want this in my home though, it's kind of cool, but also kind of not, particularly if there is a bad story behind it.

Uncool! It might have brought a lot of sorrow to a family, you don't know how the driver came out of that crash...to creepy for me.

The engine table, though, is absolutely subzero! Really nice!

It looks like an open casket. In every sense of the word. I hate it.

Roberto's table is fantastic.

Yeah it is a bit morbid, no details on it's crash. The pics show that he got it already crushed into a cube from the wreckers. would be a nice to know that no one was seriously hurt or killed in it for sure.

Very smooth way of giving yourself a compliment.

As far as the other coffee table goes, I've heard on the internet grape vine it is actually a crushed (not crashed) VW Polo with a Ferrari logo tossed in.

i saw the pics of it coming from the wreckers in a cube on the maker's site. I assumed it was crashed then crushed at the wreckers? I hadn't heard about the VW Polo rumor but i love a good online conspiracy theory! I didn't like there wasn't any details on what type of Ferrari it was, something any car fan would want to know. The maker's website is down too... which helps the conspiracy. Here's a pic that was from his site of the junk yard:

An old friend had an old 750 Sport and a 750 GT parked in his front windows on matching oriental carpets.


You can probably guess he wasn't married.

Very cool. Need a rather large living room for that though.

I'm still considering that an MV Agusta would balance up the room nicely on the other side of the fireplace... Just not sure when is the appropriate time to break it to my significant other (or maybe she'd rather a surprise)

Interesting from the license plate, this car comes for Corsica island (South of France). Impossible to guess the model though
