Photos of 6 Exotic Cars Going Up In Flames

Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is not one wreck but 6! A car carrier in Bangkok, Thailand was transporting a Ferrari, Lamborghini, 2 Bentleys, Mercedes and a BMW. One of the exotics caught fire while on the transporter (we're guessing the Lamborghini because they seem to spontaneously combust fairly frequently.) The fire spread to other cars while the truck was moving!


Thanks as always the the guys at WreckedExotics.com for our weekly dose of automotive mayhem!

Lotus Elise Squashed Like a Bug

Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is a diminutive 2005 Lotus Elise that got even smaller when a Ford Five Hundred drove on top of it. WreckedExotics.com reports that an old woman making a left hand turn just drove right up and over the Lotus--you can see the tire tracks up the hood and over the windshield!

Side-Swiped Aston Martin

What would you do if you found your car sideswiped in a garage? Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is an Aston Martin DBS and if it happened to us, we'd be gleeful that we owned an Aston Martin! Then, of course, we'd be rather upset! Wonder if this can be fixed for less than our $1000 deductible? Uh. . . probably not.

2014 Corvette Stingray Wreck!

How is this even possible? Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. It isn't even on the market yet! We get this scoop from our friends at WreckedExotics.com. In their article, they quote General Motors as saying, "During evaluation, the inside tire caught the edge of the pavement during a tight corner, leading to the accident. Thankfully, no one was hurt, the car received only minor damage, and no citations were issued." Hard to believe this is minor damage. . . but nothing we couldn't fix!

Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day brings tears to our eyes. The Aston Martin Rapide is quite possibly the loveliest 4 door sedan on the planet. . . and one of the very fastest too. This one hit an Audi SUV in Beijing.

You Don't See This Every Day-Bentley vs Panamera

Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is a PAIR of wundercars bashed into each other―a likely sign of the apocalypse. How often do you see a Bentley Continental & a Porsche Panamera in the same month? How about on the same day? How about tailgating each other on the freeway. D'oh!

1995 Ferrari 348 vs Tree

Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is a 1995 Ferrari 348 that was wrapped around a tree at high speed (yes, of course we meant the tree was speeding.) Amazingly, the driver walked away without any significant injuries. No word on how the tree fared or if drugs or alcohol were in the tree's system at the time of the collision. Police continue their investigation on rue Anatole in France.

Lamborghini Gallardo LP 550 Wreck

Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is a Lamborghini Gallardo LP 550. The story goes like this. . . an out of control truck was barreling down on the poor supercar and in an heroic attempt to avoid an accident, the driver swerved and crashed into the median. Yeah, we're a little dubious about the story too. This Lamborghini disaster is from Si Chuan, China.

Not Your Typical Off Road Vehicle

Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is yet another Ferrari 458 Italia. We commend exotic car owners for actually using their cars instead of letting them wither in a garage. However, we think that this owner might do better to leave the car at home. May we suggest a Jeep, Land Rover or Land Cruiser for this type adventure? More fun and faster too!

Rolls Royce Silver Cloud Unintentional Snow Plow

Please click the "Vote" button then select us for Best Bodyshop in the San Francisco Bay Area!

Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is an early Rolls Royce Silver Cloud. When I think of Rolls Royces, this is always the car I imagine. I like the classic, flowing lines of the single headlamp version more than the later dual headlamp models. It lost control on the highway in Monts-Verts, France. Hopefully it will be put right and be back on the road again.

Bentley Continental GTC First "Ding"

Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day returns to the good ol' USA today where this once beautiful Bentley Continental GTC (base price $191,400.00) had a "parking mishap." Don't you hate it when you get that first "ding?" In this case, the Bentley driver dinged the parked BMW behind it and several other cars in New York City.

Gold Plated Audi R8 Crash

Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day is a "gold plated" Audi R8 in Hamburg, Germany. We're not sure there is any actual gold involved. . . other than the money that went down the drain when this happened. As is most often the case, the driver was at fault. He ran after a police chase ended when he hit parked cars. It isn't clear if it was the owner who was driving or a thief who the owner claims took the car.

Ferrari F40 Destroyed

This is downright painful to watch. Video of Almost Everything's Wreck of the Day: a Ferrari F40. Created to celebrate the Ferrari company's 40th anniversary and designed to be the world's greatest supercar. Only 1,315 were made from 1987 to 1992. Buyers reportedly paid anywhere from US $400,000 to US $1,600,000 and the cars still trade for that much today. WreckedExotics.com reports that the Ferrari was returning from a car show in Vancouver, Canada when the driver lost control in the rain and hit a pole. The car is valuable enough that it will probably be rebuilt but the video shows that there is a lot of work that will need to be done.

We saw this brilliantly executed turn in a Lamborghini Gallardo first on Yahoo this past weekend and again on WreckedExotics.com today. It has over 12M views on YouTube but it is really too good not to post here too.

Hummer H2 4x4x2 Lake Disaster

The go anywhere, do anything Hummer. . . well, almost anywhere, almost anything. Jeez, this is kinda bad. Fortunately, my buddy has a Hummer too and can pull me out of this mess. . . uh. . .  #%$@*!!. . . We've got a buddy with a Peterbuilt that could drive out here. . .



Thanks to the great guys at WreckedExotics.com for finding this stuff every week and much more.

This actually happened at Lake Balaton in Hungary.

Oops! Lotus Elise Epic Fail

Surprising for a car with some of the best braking stats on the planet. Not sure how this Lotus Elise managed to find its way under the tail of this taxi cab. Maybe the cab was backing up. . . quickly.

Thanks to Jalopnik for this and many more great articles.

Jaguar E-Type Wreck in Argentina

E-Type participating in a vintage race was destroyed in Buenos Aires, Argentina. It hit a wall. Sad that this super-car from the 1960's survived this long but I guess it's one of those things where it went out doing what it did best. Thanks to the guys at WreckedExotics.com for letting us know about it.
