i dont feel bad for the car, i feel bad for the people who design and HAND BUILD these cars to a level of perfection unknown to the mainstrean automotive community. this car is the result of someones hard work. not a machines hard work.
3.5 liter quad turbocharged V12!!! Damn those Russians!

can you imagine the precision with which those engine parts must have been made! This is almost like F1 engineering territory - even the Veyron is a crude beast compared to the EB110. And consider that SS EB110 is at least twice as rare as an EB110 - which is not one of those cars most people have even ever seen IRL - how does one even begin to think about being an asshole enough to crash it like that! I'm telling you, the guy prolly did it as an insurance scam - just sabotaged the car before the race and made sure it crashed in front of a bunch of cameras to avoid any questioning...

Repairable, you think? I know the mclaren that caught fire is on the way back to HQ to see if it can be repaired. Who knows, maybe audi can sort this ED out. hahahaha...!!!!
