Must be a Mustang with a fake Porsche body, right?

Clearly the problem was the steering wheel being on the wrong side of both cars

Speed was not a factor in the accident.

I think it's safe to say they were going at a pretty good speed and hit a lot of stuff before stopping. Looks like at least one curb for the Porsche. Not sure I'd call them "supercars" though.

I can't believe that spring ended up where it did in that first photo.
I would have thought that once it came loose from strut assembly, it would end up in the next county.

If he was driving, they'd have never made it that far.

Not so fast... the Porsche is red. Doesn't that color automatically qualify as 'supercar'?

If they were super they wouldn't have sustained damage. Clearly those cars are mere mortals.
