i should point out that all the crashes i've seen so far have been into stationary objects.

at the risk of repeating myself this is a stupidly fast car that is also stupidly heavy. it does not defy physics as some people have suggested. if the tyres are not baking hot and the brakes are not in top condition then you would be surprised how easy it is on a slightly slippery road to lose all control of this car, especially under heavy braking.

God I bet. Its just one of those things that you have to treat with respect. Learned my lesson after smacking my 04 STi

Okay, I don't know the whole senerio, but here it goes.

Eyewitness said the car was racing another car and hit the curb lost control and hit the fence, based on the damages it doesn't look like it.

Another account was he as doing 50-60 mph and tried turning into the driveway of the diner.

These pics are courtsey of my brother in law. Car will be repaired and be back on the road, as far as how it will be after, is anyone's guess.

This was the first 35 to be delivered into NYC.
