KENT, Wash. - An out-of-control driver parked his red sports car halfway up a tree Sunday evening.
Neighbors said the driver of the Mazda RX-7 bought the car the same day.
Witnesses said the driver was speeding in excess of 70 mph down Woodland Way around 8 p.m. when he lost control on a curve.
Pictures show a slight berm, which may have helped launch the car nine feet up the tree. The car came to rest in a nearly vertical position against the tree.
Witnesses said if not for the tree, the car would have ended up inside the living room of the nearby home.
Incredibly, the driver had only minor injuries.

how irresponsible.

oh, to be a fly on the wall the following day at work.

"hey chad, how's your new rx-7? just picked it up yesterday, right?"

"actually, stan...."

Damn it.. what a freaking WASTE.

Ouch...

Bet he felt like an ass after that stunt

the wonders of rear wheel drive cars,...lol
some folks think they can drive...
but have never driven a rear wheel car before, then when the tail end steps out they dont know how to counter it and the result is here to see....

he just got it that day too, so insurance might not cover it, since I doubt the paperwork was ever finished.

poor sucka!
