Bicycle vs. Maserati

This video from Photoshocks has left us, well, shocked!

We're all for pranks and stunts and the like, but this is just out of order. Hopefully the bike hasn't left any dents or tire treads on the roof of this poorly parked Maserati (and at least they didn't key the car!) but still. Respect, man!

Better yet, let's just move onto something far nicer, like this MC12 going round Hockenheim. Now we're talking!

Pininfarina Dead At 51

Sad and crappy news from Turin, Italy today. Andrea Pininfarina, the designer who has worked in conjunction with Ferrari, Fiat and more, has been killed. The scooter he was riding was hit by some idiot driving a car. The man behind the likes of the Ferrari Super America, the F430 Spyder, the Maserati Quattroporte and the 575M was a mere 51 years of age.

While at Palm Beach Supercar Weekend, Garage419 had a talk with James Glickenhaus about his many cars, including the one-of-a-kind Ferrari P4/5 that Andrea Pininfarina designed and that he bought for more than $1 million.

Andrea Pininfarina R.I.P. The world of automotive design misses you already.
