most supercars i see are driven slowly, by old people  so no, you don't need to be a driving god at all.

I've accelerated out of a roundabout many times in a rwd car with no t/c no dramas.
Money makes no bearing on someone being a great driver. Bizzare comments

Plenty of people crash normal cars every day, it doesn't seem to happen very often with Supercars but when it does everyone heres about it because of what car it is.

Thing is a Supercar to rich people is like a Focus ST to some of us, it's a little bit special, takes a bit more talent to drive than a 1.1 Fiesta but when it goes wrong people comment on it alot more. They're only going to buy another one, they don't care

I am truly baffled on how people can actually crash a car tbh  i'm no driving god but i consider myself a very good driver.
I see driving as a true skill but they let any fucking idiot loose on the roads. We should have the Norweigen driving tests from the off and nobody over 70 should be aloud on the roads IMO.

No I didn't mean they're the same cars but I mean they don't care if they wrap it...they can just buy another one

about £170k i think
Not as overpriced as I thought they would be, was expecting more of an Enzo price tag

Bloody hell. I just had a reporter from the daily mail round to my house to try and find out where the owner of the Ferrari lives or used to live
Of course I politely told him to mind his own business and refused to give up any information.
