Sadly, it looks as if the driver may have been parted out as well.
Even a Mercedes Benz can't overrule physics...into a truck? Mass wins.

All things considered the safety cage looks relatively intact.
The door and roof seem to have been cut clean off using jaws.

Seems like a high number of these sports figures roll their exotic cars into *****.

He actually survived this incident - great proof that Mercedes-Benz is an ultra-safe vehicle.
I also saw a loaner GLK from my local dealership involved in a head-on collision with a dumpster hauler. This was a LARGE truck with a large dumpster FULL of material. I would say EASILY 5 Tons+ and they were both traveling 30+mph in opposite dircetions at time of impact. The GLK driver walked out - but massive damage to the vehicle. It absorbed so much force that the A-frame over the driver door partially bent - something I have never seen happen in even severe Mercedes-Benz crash tests.
