This gruesome image is the first crashed example of the hardcore 2012 Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0, of which the automaker from Stuttgart built just 600 units of. The crash happened in the south of Germany, not too far from the Nurburgring race track, and involved a second 911 (a regular GT3 RS) as well as a Chevrolet Cruze. While the matter is still being investigated, a post in Input-Aktuell, first picked up by GT Spirit, claims the 39-year old driver of the Chevrolet was driving drunk when he crossed the line and crashed head-first into one of the 911s.

The Shelby Cobra prototype at SEMA is legitimately drool-worthy, but this XJ220 prototype may be even more impressive. It's up for auction at eBay Motors with a Buy It Now price of $800,000. The seller says it's the second prototype built, sporting chassis number XPO102 and it comes complete with a video of it on the Nurburgring in May of 1991. Powered by a race-derived Heidigger-built engine from the XJR-11 race car, meaning it's likely a Rover-derived 3.5-liter V-6, it's not the V-12 juggernaut the concept was, but it's true to the production car. The prototype is smaller and in many ways...
