Ford GT crashes and driver takes off in another vehicle

When a buyer takes a vehicle as rare & collectible as the beautiful Ford GT half way across the world, you think he’d be a little more careful with it. Well, the owner of this once pristine example of the first-generation Ford GT obviously didn’t give a $hit. According to Top Gear Philippines, the driver was revving the supercar hard & showing off before he spun out & crashed into a car repair shop on Mindanao Avenue. Avoiding humiliation, the police, & no doubt mindful of the irony, he immediately fled the scene.

Witnesses claim he sped off in a Hyundai SUV that was the Ford GT’s backup SUV.

“The funny thing was that the driver left the GT like it was just a bicycle,” said one bystander. Judging by the photos, courtesy of Top Gear Philippines, it looks like there’s hope for a full recovery.
