What's interesting in the pic is that there doesn't appear to be a lot of front end damage to the Vette. Notice that the left front fender is in good shape and the rear of the sedan doesn't look it has been hit. Just doesn't look like your typical rear-end collision.

To get that far under the Honda, I would think that the Vette would have to be going at a fairly high speed.

Wonder if the Honda got dropped on the Vette by that forklift?

That's exactly what I'm thinking. Makes for a far more compelling/entertaining/whatever picture. I think this one might be "staged".

But then again...

That's what I think and I'd hate to be that forklift operator when the owner comes to call.
