Notice the CF Hood... I guess an accident like that shows the difference between steel and carbon fiber.

I think Majik got it right. While we will never know the speeds that Enzo was at before impacting that wall, or why the owner was doing that kind of speed with the stability control off while on the street. Or even why he was going that fast on the street in the first place, we can surmise on the strength of the CF.

Granted, the Enzo DID pass all impact safety tests for the US and EU, but if the car impacted with something that could "cut" the CF.. like a signpost or the like.. they it loses all of it's structural integrity.
