Directly rivalling the Ferrari F40 despite being launched a few years earlier, the Porsche 959 remains one of the German marque’s most recognisable and iconic sports cars. Additionally, with just 337 examples created, it is also one of the rarest which makes the following Porsche 959 crash all the more heartbreaking.
Details surrounding this crash remain unclear but we know that it took place on the streets of Geneva, Switzerland and the results are immediately apparent. From the following image, it appears as though the German supercar has been completely totalled with the rear window smashed and the roof and pillars inevitably crumpled following the flip.
