Most of you will not know this but when 24 year-old JAMES DEAN, a young actor, wrecked his Porsche in 1955 and killed himself will never recall that he was having 'fun". He was driving on a route that was popular for sports car drivers. Ironically, he tried to avoid a speeding 23 year old coming from the opposite direction who had crossed over the centerline. Dean had received a speeding citation earlier in the day.

Wrecking means the person WAS having fun...but they screwed up or the car let them down. What's worse than seeing a kick ass brand new 911 Turbo and seeing "the wrong type of driver" behind the wheel who is sitting inches away from the steering wheel while you know full well that car has never seen even an inch of its potential and never will? A wreck suggests otherwise.
