 | Re: Honey, I Wrecked the Porsche - WSJ.com Interesting article. I guess in most circumstances the open road isn't built for supercars like these that border on insane performance or even exceed it. But our expectations get higher and higher, manufacturers have no choice but to make 'em cars quicker and quicker. I won't be surprised to see more and more of such accidents happening especially with a younger demographic buying up these cars like there's no tomorrow. There's simply too much new wealth going around. BTW, I never knew that Veyron crashed in England. |

It's interesting to note in the article that a lot of the owners that wrecked their cars said people took photos and/or jeered them after they wrecked their exotic. | |
