RIP Ferrari

Posted Apr 13th 2007 5:27PM by TMZ Staff

The Ferrari crashed by Eddie Griffin last month was given a red carpet memorial last night -- with a shrine in its honor outside the Chinese Theater in Hollywood.

The totaled Enzo, which the "Undercover Brother" drove into a wall at a charity event in March, got its own memorial at the premiere of "Redline," with the destroyed vehicle surrounded by hundreds of roses, wreaths, candles of the saints and Virgin Mary statues.

Nothing like a little sacrilege to get some more publicity!

6. This is outrageous! As a Catholic, I'm insulted by this supposed tounge-in-cheek display for a stupid movie. If that Ferrari were a Scientologist, you'd have protests in the streets!

9. Instead of wasting their money and ruining a beautiful car worth well over $100,000 they should have just made a donation to the mission in LA
to help feed the homeless. What a waste

12. #4 this is the wrong page!.. unless the driver had made a racist/sexist remark before crashing the vehicle...lol. I love this. Very cute idea laying the car to rest. I'm sure they meant no offense to Catholics.
