Some of the more hardcore gearheads may recall this clip from Fifth Gear back in 2006 where the crew profiles the fanatical, Frank Mountain, and his purchase of the extremely rare Maserati MC12 supercar. The Maserati MC12 is a car that I simply lust after and if I had somehow fallen into a few hundred million dollars and could spare a few, I would be on a boat to some far off location to ship one of these cars back before you could blink an eye (if anyone was wondering there was one in Texas for sale last year but it is gone now, if anyone knows what happened to it, please let me know… just in case I strike oil).
In this clip we see what owning an extreme car like the Maserati is all about as Frank drives it 6 hours through sleet and snow to get his new precious metal onto a race rack. When he arrives the track looks more fit for a bobsled than it does for a V-12 Italian car and the innevitable happens as he slides around the track. Check the video out below:
