JAKARTA - An incident that sounds like a scene of theft in a movie has come true in the United States. A luxury Ferrari Roma worth US$218,000 or around Rp3.6 billion was reported to have mysteriously disappeared while on the way from a dealer in Denver to another dealer in Minneapolis.
According to a report from The Drive published Monday, April 21, 2025, Ferrari dealer in Minneapolis, Twin Cities Performance, filed a federal lawsuit against Bentley Denver dealer and delivery company Angel's Moving Autos. They accused the two parties of being negligent, causing the exotic sports car to disappear without a trace.
This story began when Twin Cities Performance bought Ferrari Roma from Bentley Denver in November 2024. The car was then scheduled to be delivered via Angels Moving Autos, which uses the Central Dispatch platform to search for transportation companies. Surprisingly, the company chosen is KT Logistics, a company known to have a fleet of cooled trucks and a dry van, which is clearly not suitable for transporting luxury cars.
The irregularities grew even more when someone claiming to be from KT Logistics came to pick up Ferrari in Denver. Ironically, the driver reportedly did not show abill of lading or clear identification. Surprisingly, Bentley Denver did not perform adequate verification.
Two days after the "take" of the car, the Angels Moving Autos actually sent a message to the Twin Cities Performance stating that the shipment went smoothly and "it all looked good and legal." However, almost a week later, bad news came: the Ferrari Roma is gone! Even more astonishingly, neither the shipping company nor Bentley Denver reportedly made any police reports regarding this incident.

In its lawsuit, Lithia Motors, which oversees Twin Cities Performance, accused Bentley Denver and Angels Moving Autos of negligence and civil theft. They also filed charges against Bentley dealers who had disbursed payments even though the car had not yet been received, as well as a violation of the vendor agreement against the Angels Moving Autos.
Currently, the existence of the Rosso Corsa-colored Ferrari is still a mystery. Twin Cities Performance and Lithia Motors demanded compensation for the purchase price of the car, as well as compensation for potential loss of profit, sales, and customer loyalty.
This incident has become a sharp spotlight among automotive and logistics lovers. How can a luxury car worth hundreds of thousands of dollars just disappear in the process of shipping between dealers?
