He destroyed a car that was, at best, a parts car. A keen eye will also notice that it is lacking the engine and transaxle (and likely, the interior pieces as well) when it is dropped from the crane.

Figured as much. Interior bits and engine parts for 911s are rather expensive. Worth much more than the body shell.

Can tell from my sig how I feel about German cars, and even I found this amusing. :)

So many stupid things done as you all mentioned. Dropping a piano on the front of a rear engined car and the stripping of the car before dropping it on the trailer make it a completely worthless piece of video.

I thought it was rather obvious. Anyone who knows anything about cars would know that that porsche was a rear-engined beast. In addition, anyone with eyes could see the condition of the car when it was hooked to the damned crane. And above all, I didnt want to waste the energy typing all that crap.
