It looks like he caught air and crash landed.

Same this happened when the GT3 first got released. Less than 100 miles. This one was toast! There's one every time. Someone not driving very smart.

He went FLATOUT I bet.
Actually the damage looks more like it fell of a second story or a lift gate of a stacker truck.

I would say he definitely caught air by the way the suspension is crushed. Pity! Bet its an expensive fix.

Terrible. What would cause the discoloration on the rear wing like that? Heat? Oil leak? Small fire?

Looks like it is toast to me. The owner will probably have a hard time getting another one as well.
