    ^^ didnt click on that link, however I saw this on my way into work this am, it looked brutal. Was maybe a Jag? there was nothing left of the car but the trunk, noway anyone could have survived that. RIP.
    A Ferrari is a high maintenance chick, you spend money regardless of what you do with her. You can baby the C63, or slap on all seasons, and you won't be spending anything but yearly maintenance. Of course that's like dating a stripper and refusing to fuck her, which would make you gay.

    A man is dead after his vehicle collided with a light standard on the Deerfoot Trail at a high rate of speed early Sunday morning. Police say that around the vehicle was travelling northbound on Deerfoot Trail at a high rate of speed and struck the light standard approaching the 64th Avenue on-ramp. The vehicle broke apart into several pieces due to the impact. The driver was killed at the scene. The CPS Traffic Section continues to investigate this incident and northbound Deerfoot trail was closed since the time of the collision and police expected it to re-open around 6 a.m. Police are not releasing the identity of the driver at this time.

    I hear it was one hell of a mess... I was getting phone calls from 3am on to go clean it up; luckily slept through those

    Pretty sure it wasn't his vehicle to boot...

    Stolen vehicle drunk = no sympathy.

    Lucky he only killed himself.

    protip: "high rate of speed" is a nonsense phrase, just say "high speed". cops often make this mistake too.
