Maybe the salesman was testing his driving skills on the street and ended up with such a sad scene. Looks like the car is ok.

They have one of these at a dealer near me. The car is very nice. It is a shame to see a wrecked one.

Autoweek had a shot like this a few months ago, w/o the firehydrant. Salesperson took a hard left out of the dealership, punched it, over compensated, smashed through intersection!

Yeah, these cars have no stability control. It's just the suspension, the engine, and you.

Wow, that sucks. Probably some inexperienced driver taking it out thinking..."It's just a Ford".
I saw in person once, great looking car.
