Driver Wraps New Mustang Around Tree After Owning It For Only Eight Hours

480 minutes — that is approximately the length of time it took one new Mustang owner to turn a perfectly good 2012 GT/California Special into the mangled insurance write-off you see here.

1. what an idiot. Glad he wasn't hurt, but jeez

Some people have no sense at all. All hormones, no gray matter.

2. We do???

3. He/she (the article isn't clear) is now rightfully a stupid-yet-awesome legend for this feat.

Having owned a '71 Dodge Charger (one of the last of the true muscle cars) and having
driven it very, very, VERY fast, I completely understand and empathise with his/her
impulse to kick out the jams, motherfucker!!!

4. Ah, the good ol' (idiotic) days of our youth :)

I crashed a brand-new Jaguar E-Type roadster back in the day. I'd returned from war and didn't expect to live to see 30 anyway.

The car wasn't a total loss. Only about $2,000 at the time--about one-third what I paid to buy the car.

But I didn't brag about it. I'd have been ashamed to tell anyone.
