Sports cars are meant to go fast. Likewise, Germany's Autobahn is meant to be driven on at fast speeds. So, wouldn't a Ferrari Enzo and the Autobahn go hand-in-hand? Well, not exactly! A $3.5 million Ferrari Enzo wrecked on Germany's Autobahn!

The damage is extensive and I can't imagine what the driver was feeling when it happened. I panic if I get a small little scratch on my cheap lease. If it was worth millions of dollars, I'd probably faint and never wake up again. Here are the details on the story.

$3.5 Million Ferrari Enzo Wrecked On Germany's Autobahn

I'm not what you'd call a "car guy." However, I do know a thing or two and have respect for nice vehicles. I've just never gotten into them because I'm well aware I will never be able to purchase one. So, if you're like me and don't know much about sports cars, let me tell you: the Ferrari Enzo is one-of-a-kind. It's one of Ferrari's final halo cars without a hybrid engine. It's worth $3.5 million. Obviously, it's not something you want to break. It's definitely not something you want to totally wreck. Unfortunately, it happened.

The Drive reports the driver lost control of the Enzo on the A99 section of the Autobahn late Tuesday morning. That's when the car smashed into a guardrail. Debris from the impact was scattered as far as 650 feet, which shows it must have been traveling at an extreme speed--which is allowed on the Autobahn. In fact, most of the popular German highway doesn't have a speed limit. So, these kind of speeds are not rare.

The Enzo wasn't the only car on the road at the time, it did damage another car in the crash. According to The Drive, 3 people were injured in the accident and one person was sent to the hospital. Turns out, the driver of the car was the official test driver at a dealership! They are unsure if the car will be able to be rebuilt. The damage is very bad. However, Ferrari might be able to reproduce everything needed to restore the car back into good condition. Check out more on the damage below.

Ranking The Best Jeep Wrangler Colors

The unique, sharp-looking Jeep Wrangler has been turning heads since 1986. Recently, Jeep announced what's new with the 2024 Wrangler, including the exterior color options. Here, we will rank the four best colors available for the new Jeep Wrangler.

Before we admire the color options that continuously help make the Wrangler one of the most unique vehicles on the road, let's first examine some of the new features for 2024.

"The Wrangler picks up a mild visual and tech update for 2024, with an updated grille and no fewer than ten new wheel designs," Car and Driver explains. Jeep has also spent a lot of time researching and developing the software components of their vehicles. This helps upgrade the technology accessories like navigation options, Apple CarPlay, and its code-reading system. Furthermore, Jeep has made a big push in recent years to enable the Wrangler to have a hybrid option. Two additional models will have the option to be an EV hybrid. You can recognize if a Wrangler is a hybrid type by the light blue accents on the exterior (logo, and trim outlines).

Model Types

There are 13 Jeep Wrangler body and model types. This ranges from the Sport entry level to the top of the line, Rubicon 392. Within this scope of Wrangler variations, the price points vary tremendously. Depending upon which model you select and the options added in, a 2024 Wrangler can start as low as $33,690. The most expensive option can run you close to $90,000.

Color Options

In order to rank the best Jeep Wrangler colors available in 2024, we need to know what color options there are to select from. "The new 2024 Jeep Wrangler is available in 11 eye-catching exterior colors, including new-for-2024 Bikini and Anvil, as well as Earl, Firecracker Red, Granite Crystal, Silver Zynith, High Velocity, Hydro Blue, Sarge, Bright White and Black," Jeep said in a press release.

#4 Sarge Green

After years of not having a proper green color exterior option (other than lime) the Sarge option entered the lineup in late 2020. Sarge is particularly striking in the one-color variation where the roof is also Sarge green, as opposed to black. Take a Rubicon off-roading and show off this green tone. A few models also come in a hybrid version, where the Sarge has the light blue accents, increasing how unique this Wrangler looks.

#3 High Velocity Yellow

Some of the more eccentric colors Jeep has showcased over the years have simply been too much. There was something about a fluorescent tone that did not always pair well with the ruggedness. However, the High Velocity Yellow is perfectly named. It's a spark plug of Wrangler where the color pops and is subtle at the same time. Going down a freeway or situated in a crowded parking lot, this option is like a lightning bolt among stones. Its perfect environment is with the top off and parked right along the beach.

#2 Bright White On White

Whether you are going for a slick and sporty look in a Sahara model or an aggressive look with a Rubicon, the white exterior with the white top and dark wheels is a home run. It's like the Wrangler dressed up for a fancy formal affair. Certain models like the High Altitude allow for a white grill and bumper, turning this Wrangler into the most "White-Out" option possible. It's sharp and really meshes well with the hustle and bustle of a busy city.

#1 Earl Blue

One of the biggest re-model enhancements the Wrangler came out during the past ten years was the Sky One-Touch roof option. This is a essentially the a button you push from inside that opens a soft-top roof from the inside. It's essentially an oversized moonroof that opens above both levels of seating. The light Earl Blue color with this option looks unmatched driving around the bends and curves of a suburban town. It has the "what color is that?" effect. This has become one of the more increasingly popular Wrangler options. Don't be surprised if you see more and more of them around your region as they almost every model offers this color option now.
