Yes, it is indeed a Superformance. The driver walked away pretty-much unharmed. I believe it was a jeep that failed to stop and climbed up the rear of the car while it was stopped. The jeep actually impaled itself on the rollbar just behind the drivers head. The one thing that REALLY caught my attention was that the fuel filler connection and hose was ripped clean off the fuel tank exposing the full load of fuel in the tank. (Fuel tank stayed in place) There were also a fuel pump(s), filters, and I think an accumulator in the trunk along with hoses that were also well shreaded. Still thinking about how to prevent that hose from disconnecting from the SPF fuel tank after an accident like this or anyone elses replica for that matter. Headlight buckets, front quick jacks were toast...the "fantastic" engine and trans were pulled by owner for use in a replacement car. hood look ok as did interior as I remember. BTW: If you remove the Trigo/WAW wheels and their center hubs from a Superformance you get 5 lugs. Also, the Mfr badging and chassis # as shown on the badge is correct for this series car. I saw the car before it was picked up by the insurance company...seriously scarey...
