Well, site is Romanian..

t'internet said:

person: Tudorache George Alexandru
address: Aleea Botorani nr. 19 bl. V51 ap 5 sector 5
address: Bucharest, Romania


But those plates do look Middle Eastern... but thats not to say its a nicked - prechop one.. just seems a long distance to take one to chop...


but the way the kids and other cars dont even complain, would indicate he some sort of local mafioso...

still.. its amazing how much the lack of front nose detracts from the cars look.

Looked like a US 355, because of the red side light on the rear bumper.

Poor car.

Whilst I certainly do not condone this sort of driving on such heavily populated roads, you must appreciate he does have some idea of car control.
Notice the 3/4 opposite lock 1/3 into the dohnut to assist in exiting the move without loosing momentum.

He may not be observing driver etiquette, but he does know how to drive. He just chose to drive like an utter mooron infront of a camera on such roads.

And yes, the engine note is not indicative of a flat plane cranked engine of a 355.
I would'nt even hazard a guess as to what became of the front bumper moulding.

He was missing the front bumper - and I'm not surprised, driving like that! Probably (hopefully) crashed it before filming. Was it just me or did anyone else want to see him fly head first into a wall?

What a cxxnt. He came so close to crashing into the passers by. Couldn't he do it in an empty oil field or something? (It's definately in an arabic country).

As JamieBeeston pointed out the website is Romanian (.ro) and the car is a Mid-East registered (possibly Dubai) F355 (looks real to me).

The location of the video is probably Bucharest, the buildings and local cars look right for this, there are a number of modern Dacias in shot, these are local Romanian build and sold almost exclusively in Romania.

As far as the driving goes, yes he is a prize pillock, but, in Bucharest they all drive like total lunatics anyway so this was probably only slightly out of the normal range anyway I used to think the drivers in Hungary were total muppets......then I visted Bucharest!

Looks like a real F355 to me – even down to the battery placement, in front of the drivers side (if RHD) front wheel – you can see it on the last shot as the camera pans around the front – where the bumper normally sits. Although can’t imagine any owner – even with serious amounts of money wanting to treat THEIR car like that.

Well if it's not a real 355, it has a 355 horn (it's the muso in me).

...as for him... to55er is too good a word, they should give him a pram - or better still, a Fiesta.

its deusch bags like him that give other car enthusiasts a bad name! i enjoy doughnuts and speed as much as the next driver but not in crowded areas like that! oh, and yes it is a real 355, but i wish it wasn't after seeing his ghetto retard modifications. with any luck that idiot will be bombed and his car can be restored to its original beautiful condition.
