₦120M Ferrari 458, The Most Expensive Car That Crashed On The Nigerian Road In 2021
This ₦120 Million Ferrari 458 Italia was the most expensive car that crashed on the Nigerian road in 2021.
The Ferrari 458 was nearly totaled after colliding with Kia Optima sedan in Federal Capital Territory, Abuja in June.
The badly smatched mid-engine Ferrari 458 sports car suffered a mangled front grille and a crumpled bonnet.
The front passenger side was also damaged while the two front airbags were deployed during the crash.
The cheaper Kia Optima, which seems to suffer no serious damage, had a damaged rear bumper.

Back in June, a Ferrari 458 Italia (Type F142) sports car on its way to being delivered to its new owner painfully crashed into a Kia Optima in Asokoro, Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria.
Details of the crash wasn’t revealed, but images and footage of the expensive crash shared on social media pages seems to suggest that the Ferrari rear-ended the Kia Optima.

A mangled front grille and a crumpled bonnet of the Ferrari shows that the Italian sports car suffered more from the crash. The front passenger side was also damaged while the two front airbags were deployed during the crash.
But the cheaper Kia Optima seems to suffer no serious damage, judging by the lone picture shared online. The sedan’s damaged rear bumper — which took most of the impact during the accident — will need just tens of thousands of Naira to get fixed.
In comparison, the badly smatched mid-engine Ferrari 458 Italia sports car — if it is not totally totaled — will need millions of naira to get it back on the road again.
While hundreds of cars got damaged in crashes from January to date, the ‘undelivered ₦120M Ferrari 458‘ is without doubt the most expensive car that crashed on the Nigerian road in 2021.
