Do you have the article that this came from? Looks to me more like it is over in the UAE and got caught up in a sand storm.

This S#!t drives me nuts. Every time I see a car like this disregarded I go insane. There was a Jag in UAE a while ago that was one of 100 under an over pass with a ton of earth on it. Makes me sick. Cars have always been like sculpture to me even when I had my 25 year old firebird in high school. It's amazing how many times I have heard the Ferrari discussion about how people value their brand and the prestige and heritage. Really, when you get down to it, money and I mean barrels (pun intended) of money is all that really matters.

Here’s an unfortunate find. Remember the destruction of Saddam Hussein’s epic car collection, many of which included the destruction of a Porsche 993 Turbo S, an extremely rare Lamborghini LM002 SUV and supposedly a Mercedes-Benz 500K worth more than millions? Well this one is a little something like that.
A journalist stumbled upon a Ferrari Enzo rotting away in the desert of Dubai. Supposedly, the reason as to why cars like these end up sitting in the dust are from entrepreneurs who returned home after their business or real estate ventures failed.
It was said to have been found in a police impound, which means that the car will most likely be auctioned off and sent to a new owner who could fix it up. But they’d better have some deep pockets and lots of cash to spend because the Enzo is sitting in a part of the world where exterior temperatures often exceed 115 degrees F.
Only 399 Enzos have been officially sold to the public. With already a considerable amount of them dead from careless actions of their owners, the Ferrari Enzo could slowly be disappearing off of the face of the Earth.

Interestingly, some exotics are just abandoned in places like the UAE. Left on the street. For YEARS. That's why so many people have such disdain for the OPEC countries: they have so much wealth that they discard several-hundred-thousand (or more) dollar cars.
