A Michigan insurance company is suing the FBI claiming it trashed a $750K Ferrari it and won't pay up. It started with an FBI agent "transporting" the Ferrari F50 in Lexington, Kentucky. The agent lost control of the car and crashed into a tree. The insurance company wants more info on the crash and to be paid for the car, but the feds won't cough up the records, their lawsuit claims.

The car was originally stolen from a Pennsylvania dealership in 2003. The dealership submitted a claim and was paid by the insurance company. Five years later the FBI located the car and stored it pending prosecution of the thief. It seems at that point the FBI took the sports car out for a spin and oops .... The feds have refused to pay up, so the insurance company is suing.

Could that agent be named Nicholas Cage?
