Looks like a roll over with all the road rash

The owner came back to find this after
taking 2 spaces in the crowded mall parking lot...?
No nasty note on the windshield though?

That does not look good.I hope the occupants of the vehicle survived.

Old tires, 375+hp, and a lack of experience and distracted driving can lead to bad things.

I am just at 500 some odd hp with a 4.09 gear and I am just getting use to handling the car on the strip, take off, etc.

Although they look amazingly similar, are the same color combination and have very similar damage, they are different cars. One has A-Mold wheels the other does not. The hole in the center of the hood is not the same shape. Makes little sense someone would ship a wrecked car from Hawaii to Vancouver.

It is the same car. Look at the red Chevy bowtie on the passenger side right behind the door. They are on both cars. Somebody swapped the wheels and the hole in the hood is the same, just a different angle

Same car.
Hands down the cheapest ZR1 ever.
Suffice to say, all the good bits were removed prior to dumping it at that dealer.

MANY years ago there was the "Pineapple Express" ZR-1 in Hawaii.
415 Yellow
I remember the owner was a photographer, his wife was a model,
and many pictures were posted. Look it up!

Totally different car. I called it the Hawaiian special as I remembered the car and the original post and where is came from. Nothing to do with Pineapple Express :cheers:
