I saw this many months back. As an attention getter, it does the trick.

As a complete waste of recyclable parts for others who would want to keep their older 911's on the road... this is SACRILEGE

If you really want to kill a Porsche, just park it all day at your local mall in between a pair of SUVs.

In the uncut version, they tried it with the motor, but the rear of the car kept swinging around resulting in the car landing on its tires!

My friend who lives in the Isle of Man knows this guy. He owns a GT40 and is a bit of a turd.

I find gratuitus stuff like that just a sign of ignorance and waste. That car could have gone to a good home somewhere.

Agreed. Too bad that jerk wasn't man enough to drive the car into the trailer in
the final scene. That might have made the whole thing worth it!
