    i know of a place that i may or maynot work at that let a non-buying customer testdrive a porsche turbo cab that had already been sold, and wrecked it. spun, tried to save it, swung back out and hit the first curb totally sideways across a corner, continued on across the street and ended up half on the next curb. from the pictures there wa sa water/oil streak for greater than a bundred feet. i dont remember the damage total, but it was real high.
