Rich Doofus Known to Crash Expensive Cars Expensively Does So Again in Midtown Manhattan

So the Carrera GT that crashed in Manhattan was one of the rare modified versions known as the Gemballa Mirage GT which apparently had 493 kW and it was being driven by Ben Chen, former co-owner of the controversial Gold Rush Rally who was off his face on drugs. What a fcuking idiot.

oh chit, dui on murican soil :)

interesting weight figure, this is almost lighter than valentino balboni's gallardo with manual transmission and seats by around 70 kg

Edit: Go to source page from Wiki article. If it doesn't work.

made in germany to split you into 1,000 pieces while doing 93 mph, it's usually around 150+ that cuts you into pieces, but the german low-cost monocoque seems to be fragile at lower speeds

I added this curb weight for the Carrera GT: 3146 Ibs 1427 kg

I love how this car is 2/10th's quicker in the standing km yet 19 kph slower than the McLaren F1. ;)

0-50 kph = 0-30 mph: 1.5 s
0-80 kph = 0-50 mph: 3.0 s
0-130 kph = 0-80 mph: 5.1 s

Motor Trend claimed an estimate of 3.2 to 60, that's "how."

I dont think it ever did that time, The fastest times, Atleast that i know of, Are 0-100Kph in 3.5s, 0-100Mph 6.8s, And the 1/4 Mile in 11.1@134.0s, I dont think its ever done those times, Correct me if im wrong.

I think those delibratley got changed by Eryk03 when he was on his rampage.

When did it do 0-60 in 3.2 secs?

Why on the homepage posted that this car has 145 laptimes?

"Faster than what at the Nordschliffe?"

Faster than itself!!! XD

Faster than what at the Nordschliffe?

the car was travelling over 100mph inside a city as it hit the first tree sideways.... hard to blame Porsche for stupid driving... every cars would have collapsed at a 100mph+ side impact on a pole/tree

STREET RACING IS , AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE WRONG THING TO DO!

RIP Paul Walker. Great car enthusiast, fine actor. The Carrera GT is one of my favorite cars, as pointed out the steering may have had a problem (leaking fluid). Since I drive a mid-engine car without stability control, I also know that the potential quick rear breakaway (especially with cold tires) demands respect and caution from the driver. Since the driver was a competitor, it seems like the steering or some other issue might be the culprit. I am sure that more info will come from examining the wreckage in time.

"@ Fangio: Don't forget about James Dean and his 550 Spyder."

I know, CoolShirtGuy already named him. Just wanted to add a few to this list. ;)

I remember Mythbusters had an episode about car explosions. They concluded that cars don't want to explode. A fuel tank doesn't just explode because there's no oxygen. BUT... They didn't test high performance cars, where everything is geared more to performance rather than safety. Hell, Gallardos and 458s are notorious for spontaneous combustion. For a mid engined supercar, the fuel tank is near the engine

@ Fangio: Don't forget about James Dean and his 550 Spyder.

Its basicly easier to die when You crash a Porsche with heavy engine behind You, and a trunk in front of you.

Head to head collision with 911 or Carera GT and some front engine car like GT-R will be much less dangerous for Nissan driver.

There are many other famous people that died in a Porsche (like Stefan Bellof, Jo Gartner, Jean Behra or Sean Edwards who died this year). Of course, they died in racing cars but in Porsches. But also many famous people died in a, for example, Ferrari as well.

@Hamcee
When did I blame anything on the brand? I just made an observation; there seem to be more HIGH-PROFILE deaths involving Porsches than other sports cars. Numbers have nothing to do with it when we're talking about rich folks, as many of them have Porsches AND Ferraris. Paul Walker himself had an F430 Scuderia.

I know it's all just coincidence, but it just seems things tend to go wrong for celebs in Porsches than in other performance machines. And it's not always a case of more money than braincells or a rookie driving something way above his/her skill level.

Yeah, I know people die in other performance cars as well and it doesn't always get a lot of press. That's why I added the qualifier of HIGH-PROFILE deaths. When I see a Ferrari on the news, it's usually on fire, with the driver safe and sound, staring at the wreckage with all the other rubber-neckers(and before anyone thinks that's a dig at Ferrari, even though it's true, I haven't seen a Ferrari in the news in a while, barring that 250 GTO that went for, like, $52 million at an auction recently). But over the last few years, when I've seen a Porsche in the news, someone died in it. That's all I'm saying. I know it doesn't mean anything, it's just one of those odd little coincidences, I think.
