Love the Volvo, he can drive too. Looks like lots of fun.

In regard to the cobra crash, the owner should be shot for letting someone with obviously lttle experience drive a car like that (lots of torque and touchy) in a busy area on damp roads. IDIOT!!!

"MMMMMM, I feel like having some ...Japanese"

It looks like the Cobra was attracted to the backside of the MX6.

I don't even understand how the owner(obviously not her) would let that lady even sit in the drivers seat let alone actually drive it AND on her own.

I agree,
The car can always be repaired. Clearly it WAS an accident.
