Man destroys Maserati
A DISGRUNTLED Maserati owner in China has hired a gang of sledgehammer-wielding men to help publicly destroy his Maserati Quattroporte, in protest over poor service from his dealer.
According to the Xinhua news agency, the dealer had repaired the $250,000 exotic sedan – which reportedly cost the owner closer to $480,000 in China -- with a used replacement part.
The owner has claimed on social media the dealership charged him for a new part, in addition to a number of other quality and maintenance issues.
The destruction symbolically took place outside the venue for the Quingdao Inteational Auto Show, and the Maserati was left with smashed windows and severely dented panelwork.

In addition to the public location for the event, the owner reportedly broadcast the destruction on Chinese social media source Weibo, with live updates of the event.
The event follows a similar incident in 2011, where a Lamborghini Gallardo was destroyed by its Chinese owner and a team of henchmen on World Consumer Rights day.
