Must be a publicity stunt. He didn't move because he knew it was coming. This is a charity event to promote the movie Redline, where many high end cars get wrecked.

On one of those celebrity news websites, it said:
"Eddie Griffin's ultra-expensive crash in a $1.5 million Ferrari Enzo has been all over television and the Internet today, but could the pricey wipeout really be a brilliant marketing ploy?

In the video obtained by CBS2 News in Los Angeles, it shows the car slamming into a concrete barricade. But, to quote Dr. Henry Lee from the O.J. Simpson case, "Something wrong."

Roll the video and take a close look at the guy standing next to the concrete barrier. He doesn't even flinch as the car comes near. Also, it's pretty interesting that after the crash, Griffin joked it up, saying, "Undercover Brother's good at karate and all the rest of that, but the brother can't drive."

This isn't the first time that one of Daniel Sadek's high-priced cars have been wrecked. During production of his movie, "Redline," two of the producer/real estate investor's expensive Porsche Carrera GTs were totaled during filming. One of the collisions was designed as a stunt. The other was an accident.

I count five high dollar "exotics" being crashed in the trailer alone. Yeah right. Somewhere in SoCal is a dude with a knack for fiberglass work and a parking lot full of fieros, 76 vettes and VW beetles.

Tim Divers Street Rods is building the car. One of the last "big" cars Tim did was a 39 Pontiac that had our chassis, Magnacharged LS6, black chrome and a Mitsubishi Eclipse convertable top. The car was incredible!

Yes, the Rambler has one of our custom frames under it, as well as the 40 Ford with the Ford GT engine.

Guys check out this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62VmJ...elated&search=

The owner of the car/producer of the movie is interviewed as well as Jermaine Dupree and they were smurking during the interviews: "it is what it is" I think this guys just wrote off an Enzo to promote his movie. If I ever met this guy I would punch him right in the teeth as hard as I could.
