For the new James Bond film “Spectre,” around $36 million worth of cars were destroyed

7 of the 10 Aston Martin DB10s that were made for the movie were destroyed, also some Jaguars, and Land Rovers. Of course, this doesn't even account for the stolen vehicles that had been ready to ship to the filming of the movie, 5 Range Rovers that disappeared in December 2014 and 4 vehicles no news outlet would name. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/bond-cars-stolen-germany-755771
Michigan's Upper Penninsua - Lake Superior Rally in 2 weeks
The Lake Superior Performance Rally takes place during peak foliage season in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, which means that this rally is always one of the most unforgettable and picturesque. Headquartered in Houghton, the unpredictable fall weather could mean conditions anywhere from dry and sunny to accumulating heavy snows. LSPR takes advantage of the rugged terrain of the Keweenaw and Lake Superior shoreline to live up to its reputation as the oldest, meanest, toughest rally on the circuit.
