Desiigner had no business getting behind the wheel of a rented Ferrari, but since he wrecked it when he did, he needs to cough up some dough … according to the rental company’s lawsuit.
The rental company is suing the “Panda” rapper for destroying a 2014 Ferrari back in June. It had been rented by 2 of his friends, who are also named in the suit.
According to docs … the friends gave Desiigner permission to drive the whip, and then he crashed it in NJ. The car’s valued at $220k, but the company’s suing for more than $500k because they say they’re going to lose out on future rental money — as in $1,599 per day.
The docs also included a cryptic tweet, supposedly from Desiigner, saying, “If you have a luxury car you better know how to drive.” The rental company thinks it’s a confession, but we checked and the account doesn’t look like it belongs to Desiigner.
We’ve reached out to him, so far no word back.
