At least we got that out of the way early. Don't think it will buff out.

head-on left offset with an Audi Avant .

Nasty. Someone got a bit carried away trying to impress their pals and it all went pear shaped eh. Sad. Looks to be a fair bit of claret spilt on the side airbags too, so occupants obviously in very bad shape…

After seeing how bad that looks and to hear that no one was seriously hurt, I'd say that Porsche did an excellent job of building yet another safe and well built automobile!

I agree - makes me feel good about the decision to order it for my wife and son.

Actually if you read the reports, the other driver was at fault by driving and passing at excessive speed right into the oncoming Macan.
