Clips from the movie, Bad Boys 2:

(what the weak-minded boys on the street think the 550 is all about)
(2 meg) How to damage a $300,000 Ferrari on a movie set
(this clip is posted under the fair use, not-for-profit provisions of the 1976 U.S. Copyright Act because I wanted to comment on the irresponsible portrayal of the Maranello's capabilities in this Hollywood spectacular... and illustrate it.

(3 meg)How NOT to damage one (hint: Stunt driver and Computer-generated car)

Again, this clip is posted to show how blue screen special effects in the film and Computer-Generated Imagery (CGI) was used to create a synthetic capability of the 575 Maranello.

This schoolboy fantasy of ther Maranello is something that street cruising boys bring with them when (as happened recently) they pull up next to you on the interstate, smiling and waving like idiots for a race, or jinking in and out of traffic to keep up!

Special effects aside, actor Will Smith knows how to handle a Ferrari.
His own personal 456 four-seater was offered for sale on Ebay in August, 2004.
