That really doesn't look as bad as the other C-GTs crashed out there. I'll go ahead and state the obvious, looks like he came into a right-hander a little too hot and it slid into a curb.

the ugly thing is under the car where u can't see. the carbon fiber undertray is more expensive than the body panels. just the wheels & the rotors on the GT u can buy a Boxster already...

there are alot of us that live in so cal who do not want this to happen to us as well. i think that if you are going to post something like this, it is necessary to tell us who it was who did this or else why post this story at all?

for now, i'm just going to say it was in san diego. i'm still processing how f-ng stupid this guy was and what the hell i should be doing about it. it doesn't appear there is any damage to the car, but i still can't believe a) he did it and b) TOLD me so non-chalantly. i kept waiting for the "just kidding" that never came. did this guy really take:

"Tech inspector:

Please evaluate this vehicle's suitability for very high speed driving on a race track."

to mean take it out and hit 150 mph on public roads - in a corner?????

so, you are going to complain about some shop who basically raped you AND your car and not name names? i believe this this is called "battered wife syndrome"......
"it really isn't their fault they did what they did. it is my fault they raped me."?
