This was funny. The girl driving the Pug started backing up without really checking the mirrors. When everyone around screamed STOP, she stopped within 1cm from the Porsche. And the Porsche was... a 964 Carrera RS :eek:

Orange/black Lotus with finnish plates? I approve.

...with front left damage. Spooky.

The owner said it met with the tyre wall. Only cosmetic damage. Some orange masking tape and it was back in action :)

There's no-one driving it! :eek:

https://pic.armedcats.net/m/mx/mxm/2009/08/31/DSC_5837.jpg


This was parked at the airport, according to D-Fence it's a Brabus owned Maybach, and therefore worth taking a picture of ;)

How about 400kg of meat in the passenger compartment? :p Seriously, I (at 91 kg) was the lightest person in that car.
