"I pressed this button..." Uhh, note to idiot owner - that's the TRACTION CONTROL button! [sigh] Why do so many people who own fantastic automobiles not DESERVE them?!

Maybe he thought it would fly like one of his kites and clear the guardrail?

isnt that how we learn the characteristics of the vehicle?

When I had the challenger srt in my possession, I played around with traction off, albeit scary.

also, it sounded like he was going to buy another, so it didnt really matter to him.

Judging by the damages, I don't think it was the stability control. He just went into the corner way too hot and understeered into the guardrail.

Btw, these two guys may have money but they both look like a couple of retards. Especially the driver.

He was accelerating even as he entered the turn and them attempted to brake/turn as he was already in it; idiot. Only thing worse then his technique is his (frenchie) excuse.

Not when you're already doing north of 100MPH and don't know what the button does. That's just plain stupid.

I wonder how much it would cost to fix. I'm guessing here, but lets say rouughly 6-10 grand on say a nice new car, but a 200k Aston Martin?

I'm guessing north of 20-25k, if not (way) more.

Anyone have any ideas of how much repairs like that would run?

Does anyone know the procedure of what happens if you crash a car while on a test? Always wondered what would happen....saw a Mazda get hammered once while pulling out of a dealership on what looked to be a test drive...

That's the "I gotz money" effect. I wish I were loaded like that to crash an AM and laugh about it. Must be nice.

On another note, at the beginning of the video he looked afraid of the car. He should have not pushed it.
