Man intentionally rams into GM's Detroit headquarters with his Chevy



Police in Detroit are investigating why a man intentionally drove his Chevrolet Monte Carlo into the revolving doors of the Renaissance Center over the weekend. Witnesses say the man, dressed all in black, lined up his late-model coupe and planted his foot on the accelerator. The car crashed into the glass doors and both building security and police quickly responded to the scene.

The incident occurred Sunday afternoon, and so far, police haven't released the man's name or a motive for the crime. Crews have already set to fixing the damage, and the doors are expected to be in working order shortly.

If I drove a Monte Carlo, I would probably want to crash and destroy it as well...

Monte Carlos have been around up to 2007 model year (3.5 liter V6 & 5.3 liter V8). Although I wouldn't have purchased one.
