A man in Mexico went viral after unsuccessfully trying to load a Ferrari F40 onto a trailer.
It went wrong, but there’s good news.
And the good news is this Ferrari F40 is actually a replica.
So no harm, no foul.

No Ferrari F40s were harmed in the making of this film
A content creator in Mexico who goes by Spotterroma uploaded a video of a Ferrari F40 being loaded on a trailer to his Instagram channel.
The clip immediately went viral probably, we suspect, because some people have a morbid desire to see what happens when somebody luxury cars in ‘harm’s way’.
In the clip, the owner of a wannabe Ferrari F40 was trying to load it up on to a trailer, and it took forever to get it done, and it wasn’t pretty – or smooth.
The good news is no Ferrari F40s were actually harmed in the making of this film, as the traditional disclaimer goes, because this is not a Ferrari F40.
It’s a decent replica, but a closer look will reveal discrepancies between this and the real thing, like the exhaust system at the back, for example.
Are fake supercars worth the trouble?
Fake supercars can be fun, and they look good (sometimes), but they generally fall apart quite quickly.
YouTube is full of videos shared by people who’ve owned fake Murciélagos or knock-off Huracáns, and they all agree that counterfeit supercars cause headaches.
Even though they’re technically not illegal – there’s a reason why we chose our words carefully there – they are definitely frowned upon.
And automakers are absolutely not happy about them.
Fake cars might not be worth it, but hey, at least they look cool.
More or less.
