As amazing as that crash looks, the cockpit remains somewhat intact except for the doors obvious. Im guessing that's 150+.... Wooooow

I was going for a little bit of humor mixed in with reality.

What 22 yr. old (even in oil-rich Qatar) has $500K to blow on an SLR?
I mean, that's a helluva allowance.

Man I think over there that really is pocket money, there is a poster on the 6speedonline forum that is about the same age and he has enzo's , carrerra gt, gt2, etc, etc. I thought you were kidding but I read another post that said thats why you don't let kids drive, well over there 22 years old could mean your a billionaire Prince.

I have a pretty impressive Internet Garage too: couple of Veyrons, a fleet of Comp Coupes, a black '63 split window Corvette (427 with a Muncie M-22 "Rock Crusher" 4-speed), a Smart car....
