Porsche 918 Spyder crash in Shanghai, China
Sad pic.
from the article:
So far, there is no information about the condition of the driver and/or passenger, but if we have to believe the pictures, the people who are standing next to the Porsche were the occupants. Credits to Webb_Cheung who has released this pictures, and as soon as there is more information available, we will do an update, so stay tuned!
4 pictures and full article

She confused the brake with accelerator.
Hence CGT is a better car to own since 99.9% of women would not be able to drive it (and 99% of men)

Not a bad idea. Even with AWD and TC, 950 ft lb is a lot of torque for four little round doughnuts.

I wouldn't scratch this one off just yet. I don't know how badly the carbon fiber tub has been affected,but it looks like it can be fixed.
