" Even with all-wheel-drive, the 887-horsepower Porsche 918 Spyder is a lot to handle. Apparently, too much to handle for the former owner of car #830, who wrecked it after putting just 92 miles on the odometer. Now, #830 has turned up at\u00A0a salvage auction in Long Island, with bidding up to $100,000 at the time of writing. Normally, a car this destroyed would be declared a total loss and meet its untimely demise at the crusher, but limited-edition\u00A0hypercars are a bit of a different story.\u00A0Recall, the Ferrari Enzo that was restored by Ferrari after it was literally ripped in half in a California\u00A0crash. That car recently sold for $1.76 million. If you have the money and patience, Porsche will\u00A0likely be willing to\u00A0bring this car back to its showroom-fresh state. It might cost you as much, if not more, than buying a working 918, but you&amp;#039;d have a car with a unique\u00A0history.\u00A0 Per alleged Porsche replacement prices\u00A0leaked onto Reddit, a factory\u00A0918 engine costs over $200,000 and a new transmission costs nearly $70,000. If those prices are accurate, fixing\u00A0this 918 requires a big wallet and an inordinate amount of bravery. Then again, you could have the only 918 Spyder that could truthfully wear a &amp;quot;BUILT, NOT BOUGHT&amp;quot; bumper sticker.  via Motor Authority  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
