"Stefan Eriksson, former Gizmondo honcho and idiot supreme, just forked over another car. On February 21, he totaled his priceless Ferrari Enzo in a most bizarre traffic accident filled with unanswered questions, Homeland Security officers and a German fella named Dietrich. This past Sunday, Eriksson lost his $400,000+ Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.
Police stopped the ex-gaming exec because an officer thought the automobile’s European plates looked suspicious, reports The LA Times. It turns out that the driver, Eriksson’s 33-year-old wife, didn’t have a driver’s license. Moreover, the car wasn’t even registered in the United States. Hang on, it gets better.
“We contacted Scotland Yard and subsequently learned that the car was perhaps stolen,” said a LAPD officer. Apparently, a yet-named financial institution says it owns the Mercedes. This recent even leaves Eriksson with only one of three exotic cars he brought into the United States last year. He had told authorities that they were show cars, and he wasn’t going to drive them on city streets."
what's that old saying? "a fool and his money are soon parted"
