Tunisians Destroy Ferrari Allegedly Owned by a Family Member of the Exiled President!
Earlier this week, a video showing ousted Tunisian President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali's Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano dangling from the forks of an industrial truck made world headlines. But that wasn't the only car from Maranello to be targeted by the angry protesters. New videos and photos showing yet another Prancing Horse model being 'liberated' have now surfaced online.
This time it's a red-colored Ferrari California claimed to be owned by a member of the former Tunisian Preseident's family named Sofiane Ben Ali. In their mad rush, Tunisian rioters utterly destroyed the hardtop convertible relieving it from tires, badges and anything else that could get their hands on.
The looting seems to have taken place in the garage where the Ferrari was parked, meaning that no one took the Italian supercar for a spin, which is kind of sad (in a twisted way of course...). Scroll down for the video and photos.

Why are you so mad, is just a car........or is just money, that belongs to someone that is bad to their own country that have too much money. Is not like they killed a human or an animal. Also the car is just a mass produced entry level model, is not like they destoried a limited quantity hypercar like an Enzo or Mclaren F1, that would be kinda sad.
But if I am the looter, I won't destroy the car. I would try to get it started somehow and drive that thing around. Or at least remove the parts and install it on whatever beater that they drive.....like the seats for example
They probably mounted the wheels on something else though since they are gone! I want those brake calipers on my SC430!!
