I don't know if there are any. The previous owner spent over $200,000 keeping this car perfect and drove it all the time.
So he spent more than the car was worth taking care of it. It seems like he loved that car more than anything. It's really sad that all that time, and now it's destroyed. I have no doubts that the previous owner will buy it back again, and spend more money trying to repair it.
Your comment makes no sense. The last few F50s have sold for well over 1 million. If the owner didn't want it when it was in great condition then he sure isn't going to want it wrecked.
Oh, I thought it was only worth $200,000, I think I confused the miles with the price. Anyways, he was probably one of those owners who thought "I've had my fun with it, and it's time someone else have that joy", and made a gigantic mistake.

About the exhaust fumes in the cockpit thing, couldn't find any info, does the F50 really have a tendency to do that or did the owner just make up a story for insurance?

Someone commented that on the second YouTube video you linked.

Not sure who said that but that is the biggest load of cr*p ever.

Woohoo! I've turned into Bloomberg News who posts something without checking their sources first :D

Yeah especially since the top was off. Any carbon monoxide in the car would be negligible because the air would be constantly circulating. There is no way that could have happened.

Hmmmm. Wonder how it really happened. How much money do you want to bet that he was showing off to chicks, and he ended up crashing it into a tree? By the looks of it, that's probably what happened. You can even see where the pole of the tree was by the gigantic bend in the bumper on the right side.

He floored it and due to his lacking driving skills he lost control of the car and crashed, OR he was passing cars in traffic like he did on that first video and lost control due to his inability to handle the powerful RWD car.

Hopefully it gets sent up to the Gas Monkey Garage, I'd like to see a F50 even if it is wrecked.

It will be fixed but I hope it isn't fixed by someone like them. It should go to a real Ferrari repair shop that returns it exactly to the way it was. If the tub is damaged that will be a huge repair bill if done correctly.

Hell no! That was horrible.
Piece of automotive art ruined.

I'd HATE for it to go to Gas Monkey Garage. They completely destroyed that F40. Since New Britain isn't too far from where I live, they should send it to the Miller Motorcars Service Facility. They could fix it there.

It's like someone spills some watercolor on Da Vinci's Mona Lisa, what do you do? Restore and repair it to 100% original, or restore it and make modifications to make it look "cooler".
