It was already destroyed when they turned it into a Mirage GT IMHO.

Duochebag owner tried to float a story it was stolen at first. That was about an hour before the videos of him coming out of the car started to pop up.
Wonder what story he was trying to sell to the cops... He was probably trying to avoid the same Pelican that made that Veyron driver go into the lake...

Unfortunately the article in the first post is incorrect. It's funny how some media sources run with the incorrect info and post it as news. If you want the videos, you can see BC driving and fleeing the scene. Then after the car gives out, he's seen getting out of the car. With all of the things going on in NYC at the moment, why would you get in a car like that and drive it recklessly while intoxicated is beyond my comprehension. Link with more info below:

Would have been some interesting IG Live content, that's for sure.

Crazy - especially what is going on in the world right now. To endanger even more people is not a good thing. This has not been the first car he has wrecked though.

Total douchebag. Slams into cars that he doesn't even know if someone was sitting in and then flees without even getting out to check. What a scumbag.
