Drifting? The owner (guy in white shirt on cellphone) doesn't look like the type of person who'd be drifting.

Hm, it looks like he actually went ***-first up the slope and through the fence. Which is the opposite of what I originally thought.

yeah the rear of the car definitely took the impact, and drifting a 997Turbo?

Possible? well sure, but for the average person to be attempting to drift it in a MALL parking lot? eh, not buying that story, but am interested in seeing how they managed to pull off backing over a curb and up a hill by accident.

Looks like he went in *** backwards - the front is untouched in the photo. How did this really happen? As you can see the rear bottom valence took a beating from the right side.
