I recall this happening in Germany with a similar caliber car not that long ago.

Italian dude says :i got this honey ,you always worry too much!

Totally Fux'd

The article was kind enough to call the two passengers "technicians".
I'd call them parking attendants from the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off".

A similar thing happened to a local tire shop in my town when the tire techs took a customer's Porsche911 Turbo out for a test ride and slammed into a pole. The guy sued and they ended up buying him a brand new one.

Yeah.....OUCH!!!

Maybe the brakes and steering were not up to that driver's standards. lol

A good rule of thumb would be that if you can't afford it, don't break it.

Relax, all right? My old man is a television repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it.

Yikes! Well, that's what insurance is for. TBH I would be nervous as [censored] if I even had to road test one of those.

Is the guy in the last photo texting his friends "Guess what I just wrecked!!"

 

[sleddriver]

Wow...what a idiot. Mid-engine, high HP cars don't drive like most...particularly when you go to the firewall with the gas. Notice the car is facing traffic and one dude is sitting right behind it...txtng. Clueless. Oblivious. What if another idiot sped in and hit the front? Darwin award grand winner?

Ouch indeed....

You mean life insurance, don't you?

 

[sasha]

give it to the grease monkey garage. it'll end up jet black with green wheels and be better.

Wow lot of judgment here. The article doesnt mention speed speed or the nature of the repairs. They could have been cut off by a hypermiling Prius driver, or diagnosing a high speed driveability problem. It's sad to see a bunch of adults pointing fingers and calling names like school children.

If you were involved in a wreck in a customer car, wouldn't you call or text the boss?
