Ferrari FXX Crash at Laguna Seca



We didn't see this crash while we were at the track this month. It is supposed to be the first recorded crash of a Ferrari FXX (the $1.8 million street version of the Ferrari Enzo racing car.) According to our friends at WreckedExotics.com, it happened during a special "Ferrari Racing Days" event at Mazda Raceway, Laguna Seca on May 22, 2011. The Ferrari went off the track at Turn 8 "The Corkscrew" and crashed into the tire wall.

Not Always Obvious. . .

The accident didn't seem that bad. . . the plastic bumper bounced back into place and it didn't look like there was much damage.

Sometimes the damage isn't obvious. Be wary when accepting settlement payments from a driver that hits you or their insurance company. Significant damage to the car below was not visible from the outside. The damage to the bumper reinforcement and rear body is a safety concern if the car is hit again from the rear. And the trunk is going to leak in the rain or a car wash.

Bob, our Master Technician, works on
a car with rear end damage
The bumper cover is removed and things still don't look too bad
But when we take off a plastic cover
you can see the big wrinkle in the metal
on the driver's side of the trunk opening
There is a wrinkle at the weather seal on the passenger side too.
The weld on the bumper reinforcement is broken
The bumper reinforcement is crushed and twisted




Maaco-Fremont repaired all of the damage on this car, replaced the crushed bumper reinforcement and energy absorber and repainted the damage area with factory paint.

1992 TOYOTA PASEO BODY WORK & COMPLETE PAINT

Maaco Fremont's car of the day is this 1992 Toyota Paseo. The customer came to Maaco to get the rest of the body work completed. He had already replaced the fender and front bumper but the quarter panel was something he could not repair on his own. He informed us that this was a commuter car and he had a budget that we needed to work with. We told the customer that we would give him the best service at the best price. When the customer returned he did not recognize his own car. So before you decide to sell or junk your car because of some rust, dents or dings come on down to Maaco Fremont and let us give you a free written estimate.
