When you attempt to repair a crashed Ferrari 812 Superfast, costs add up fast, as TheStradman found out
3 hours ago
- YouTuber James Stradman has purchased the damaged Ferrari 812 Superfast that once belonged to actor Michael B. Jordan.
- In a video, he outlines how he’d like to repair the car on a budget by doing as much of the work as possible by himself.
- After getting into the project, he discovers more frame damage than expected, and realizes that costs are about to spiral out of control.
We’ve all been there, surfing the web, looking at classifieds, when a ridiculously cool car with a seemingly small amount of damage pops up with a shockingly low asking price. That’s what happened to James Stradman, but he actually went ahead and bought the car, a crashed Ferrari 812 Superfast.
Maybe it was that he had the money to gamble on the car, or maybe it was the fact that it had become internet famous for belonging to actor Michael B. Jordan and crashing into a parked Kia on camera, but whatever convinced Stradman to buy the car, he’s now regretting his decision.

In its unfortunate Hollywood crash, the front right side of the Ferrari was damaged. However, based on the images shared in the eBay auction for the vehicle, it was hard to tell just how severely damaged the vehicle was.
In a new video, Stradman goes over early steps of assessing how much work the Ferrari would need. At the outset, he says he’d like to do all (or, at least, the vast majority) of the work on the car himself, to help cut costs.
As you’d expect there is some body damage, the bumper needs replacing, the windshield needs removing, and some work needs to be done inside to fix the areas where airbags have popped through the trim.
Even these relatively manageable jobs wind up costing a lot, though. For example, Ferrari charges $9,809.17 for a new bumper, and a passenger side fender costs $5,761.26, meaning that even if he doesn’t pay a mechanic to do the work for him, it will cost a lot to fix the vehicle.
Unfortunately, things go from bad to worse for Stradman. Once he removes some of the body work, he discovers frame damage deep in the bowels of the car. Despite his desire to do everything himself, he very reasonably concludes that a Ferrari 812 Superfast is not the car to learn how to repair frames on.
“Unfortunately, the budget for this car, has been completely destroyed. I mean, completely annihilated,” Stradman says. However, he claims to still be committed to the project, and says that his next step will be to consult professionals for their opinions on next steps.
