Watch The Moment This Guy Totalled Someone Else's Ferrari 458
At the time of this unfortunate accident, this now ruined 458 Italia had been loaned to a 26-year-old driver by Colorado supercar tour company Oxotic. It looks like the driver steamed into the bend a little too quickly, then tried to make the corner while braking, with predictable results.
The rental company, which uploaded the video, had the following to say about the state of the Ferrari:
“So the car basically had the entire passenger side damaged. every component. That rear flank is all aluminum and costs $38K alone and it was trashed! I wish I had taken more photos but I was not in the right mindset to do a full photos shoot. It was determined almost immediately that it was a total loss by the body shop and insurance company. Very sad.”
Oxotic has promised to detail the whole debacle in a future vlog, which should make for interesting viewing…
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

That’s why those cars are insured.
Sorry for your loss, How much for the seats and steering wheel?
Pretty sure they have ABS, do you even commit bro.
Ferrari uses tackle!
….
Guard rail used protect!

It’s super ;) effective!
That will buff out
ferraris don’t understeer
only when you’re trying to impress the p*ssy tho …
Wonder what speed was he going while entering the corner? well obviously 0 at the end but I mean when he started his perfomance cornering?
It didnt look that fast tbh.. looks like I could have taken that corner with my normal limousine car
This really was not very fast. This guy is just an idiot and clearly has a misunderstanding of the laws of traction. Literally he was going at a speed the car could definitely handle, and was almost halfway around the corner, then just slammed on the brakes and lost traction and slid into a wall. ABS does not really give much Ability to Brake and Steer (lol) if the wheels are locking up. Should have stuck with the slower STi.
Thats a waste of a 458
Now we can swap another gt86!
