Supercar Collector Crashes Rare ₦294m Porsche Gembella During Coronavirus Lockdown (Photos)
Supercar collector Ben Chen crashes rare $800K Porsche Gembella Mirage GT into four different cars during Coronavirus lockdown.
The rare Gemballa Mirage GT is also one of several six-figure exotic cars that Chen has crashed over the last ten years.
The fact that major roads are currently almost empty hasn’t stopped millionaire Ben Chen from finding things to crash into.
The supercar collector was charged with reckless and drugged driving after embarking on a five-car hit-and-run spree in New York with his rare Porsche Gembella Mirage GT on Tuesday morning.
According to the NYPD report, the 33-year-old fled the scene after hitting a parked Toyota Sienna. He then went on to hit three more cars before he was finally arrested.
The wreckage of the $800K supercar drew worldwide attention as the supercar is just one of 25 that was built.
