    "Estimated to be worth half-a-million dollars" says the newscaster. Does the newscaster mean this is the value after the crash? Or before?

    I wonder how this particular Lexington Kentucky F50 came to be involved in a "drug sting"?

    Questions, questions...

    Is it even possible for an F50 to go 40mph...?

    It is the car I used to own until last summer. The real story is quite incredible, one I am not at liberty to discuss since it is the subject of a federal case against the current owner.

    The latest twist is a sad turn....the car was being transferred to another area since a trial is upcoming, and there was a crash with a federal agent at the wheel.

    How weird is this!! That's the right rear wheel that Jas replaced because it was scuffed when he bought the car.

    re-read my earlier post....things have worked out fine for me. The current owner is not so lucky, and today's events are just a sad twist.
