Looks like it took the accident very well. Just send it back to Ferrari. They will completely rebuild it.
They also said at teh end of the video that they totaled out 2 CGTs in the filming of the movie

i thought 399 was the true total produced...
like the F50 was 349 because the demand they estimated was 350 cars so they made 1 less... then i thought they did the same with the Enzo except they started with 400 as the demand and 399 is what they made...
i am sure Ferrari made a couple extra as test mules and platforms for the FXX and the MC12...

349 Enzos were made, then due to pressure and demand, they made another 50 bringing the total to 399. Then one more was made and auctioned to help Katrina victims, bringing the total to 400. I don't think we'll see any more, ..ever.
There have been quite a few crashes though, so i'd guess there are only about 390 left.

On November 8, 2005, Ferrari announced that it would build one additional Enzo, bringing the total to 400. The car, chassis #ZFFCZ56B000141920, was auctioned by Sotheby's Maranello Auction on June 28, 2005 to benefit survivors of the 2004 Tsunami for €950,000 (US$1,274,229), almost twice its list price. This sum was presented to Pope Benedict XVI, while former Ferrari Formula One driver Michael Schumacher gave the pope a steering wheel to commemorate the donation. This wheel included a plaque which read, "The Formula 1 World Champion's steering wheel to His Holiness Benedict XVI, Christianity's driver."

IF this is totalled, that brings my personal recollection to a total of 9 totaled Enzo's.
1) Black Enzo burns in Houston, TX
2) Some kid crashed his Dad's Enzo shortly after purchasing it. (FL?) - MAY have been fixable
3) Robert Losse (sp?) in Utah totalled his (the used in the Car & Driver article) going almost 200 mph.
4) High Speed crash on Italian Highway splits an Enzo in two...
5) Stefen Erikson
6) South Korean accident
7) Monteray, CA - Old guy may have suffered heart attack while driving, crashes Enzo...DOA...
8) Russian guy totals his Black Enzo in busy Nice streets...driver STILL in coma...
9) (not funny) Comedian crashes Enzo in possible publicity stunt...

doubt it.. they would not risk someone's life / health like that as part of a publicity stunt. They would have like, had the car fall off a flat-bed or something...
