Dayam .... I almost had a heart attack three times there.

I get nervous going into a parking garage with my lowered G - I would need a straightjacket after something like what Jeremy and the lads went through.

But it'd be nice to have the problem .... http://forums.freshalloy.com/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

Jesus, Mary and Joseph! That was so hard to watch.

I do love that show though. Especially all the ripping of the French and the Germans. Clarkson is hysterical.

Some of the Lamborghini's at the shop were 'modified' with skateboard wheels under the front bumper to deal with situations exactly like that one.

Doesn't the Enzo come with a special 'nose-lift' feature just for situation like Clarkson et al encountered?

Yes. For improved aerodynamics, the Enzo has a tremendously long front overhang, which requires it to use its nose-lift feature for smaller curbs than the one in the video.

Normally, it's really embarassing to have to use the nose-lift feature around town, but it would have worked well in Paris that day.
