    Re: Ferrari Owner Is Minus His Second Car

    The story was in the LA Times as well...
    Amazing... the guy sounds like a total con artist. Kudos to him for being a con with good taste in autos.

    Re: Ferrari Owner Is Minus His Second Car

    That stupid guy had really bad taste for wheels....

    His wife isnt the sharpest knife in the drawer either.

    Yes, drive a black SLR in LA with only British plates.That definitely wont draw attention from joe traffic officer.

    How dumb can a person get!

    Not a big deal when the docs are faked. Apparently it was supposedly brought in as a show car and wasn't supposed to be driven. This guy was able to find all the loopholes.

    Re: Ferrari Owner Is Minus His Second Car

    Why does this guy insist on replacing his cars beautiful rims with these hideous ones?

    Re: Ferrari Owner Is Minus His Second Car

    C'mon, Jim...give this guy a break.

    I agree, if somebody has that much money, why wouldn't he try to stay legal and attract as less attention as possible? Maybe he isn't the kind of guy who understood how the american system works. It works great if you have money and get adapted to it. It works against you if you think you have the money and everybody else can kiss your b.tt.

    Re: Ferrari Owner Is Minus His Second Car

    the story of this guy keeps getting stranger

    I think you hit the nail there. This guy was a heavy criminal and member of an infamous gang called Uppsalaligan in Sweden (I am Swedish by the way... but I was not member of this gang, smile). He served quite a few years in prison. I don't think he understands what is legal and what is not legal and he probably cares even less. In addition, I would think he enjoys attention (the smart ones stay out of attention, but they also don't get caught).

    To legally drive a non US spec and non Cali CRB spec SLR, all that they had to do was go to the DMV and get a temporary license. Its so simple. Just a form on a small piece of white paper that you tape to he inside of the rear window. The DMV doesnt ask about the car all they want is the money for the temporary vehicle license, that you fill in yourself, if at all! Dont ask me how I know this.

    But Noooooooooooooooo They had to do something really obvious - like use British plates - that gave the police
    legal probable cause to stop the car. Duhhhhh

    Re: Ferrari Owner Is Minus His Second Car

    My Ferrari mechanic knows him, said he is actually a very funny character...very carefree, doesnt give a **** about anything. I think that is obvious to us now..
