How not to get a Cayenne out of a ditch! Complete with Russian dance music in the back ground

It looks like he hit a sharp rock or something... What an idiot.

That reminds me of that Russian thread here boasting about smashing up a Cayenne and other expensive cars.

Porsche must make a fortune in places where there is a disproportionate number of tools.

Easy come, easy go.

I don't think they're stupid.

The younger people are more like spoilt children with new toys.
Looking at the video the guy driving the car had no mechanical sensibility.
He just flattened the throttle hoping he could drive out of the bog.

You have to ask what was he thinking?

Peter, you're too polite... What they did was stupid and I tend to judge a person based upon their actions. In other words, "if you do stupid things, you're stupid". You're the wiser of us...

Note to self: Never buy used upscale vehicles from Russia.

Good ad for whoever makes the wheel, itself, though. That looked like the only part that came out unscathed.

It's worse than that. He would have had to turn off the psm (traction control) to get wheel spin . . .and be too stupid to select special terrain mode. (where all 4 wheels would drive)

I think that pimple headed pencil neck lives down the street. You don't have to be a drunk Russian to be stupid. He's this week's winner, though.
