We all love a good supercar, but those of us who can't afford a Bugatti Chiron or McLaren 720s also love to see a good supercar crash video. There's something about seeing these expensive pieces of exotic machinery rendered useless that stirs a dark part of the soul, but there is one exception: hardcore Porsches and especially those with the hallowed 'RS' bade stuck on the rear. So when we saw this crash-damaged 2018 Porsche 11 GT2 RS for sale our hearts sank. The GT2 RS is one of the purest driving machines Porsche has ever built, and this one has seen better days.

When the 991 generation Porsche GT2 RS first came out, dealer markups went out of control. This $293,000 German exotic would easily sell for $500,000, but the current bid at the time of writing is $82,000 (the website claims an estimated retail value of $362,328) with just a few hours left to place a bid. This silver Porsche completed only 3,891 miles before its life was cut short, and has been registered under a non-repairable title.

From the photos, it is clear that this GT2 RS suffered extensive damage across the entire exterior of the car. The front of the car is a disaster zone, and the left side took a beating. The good news is that the interior still looks in good nick, as does that massive rear wing.

When in a running condition, the 991 Porsche GT2 RS is a force to be reckoned with: this German supercar has lapped the Nurburgring Nordschleife in a blazing 6:47.3 min and is still considered one of the best driving machines around. Under the hood, the GT2 RS packs a 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six engine producing a monumental 700 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Grippy Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires keep the power down. This Porsche manages a 0-60 mph time of only 2.6 seconds, and a quarter-mile time of 10.3 seconds. With some TLC and a few grand, someone can build a seriously cool track-only weapon with this damaged example.
