Bear 1, Subaru 0

Okay, the guy pictured above is not the owner, just the goofy neighbor who got caught up in the excitement of a bear shredding the interior of a Subaru Impreza.

Not sure where this happened, other than to say it was in bear country. As you can see by the images that follow the jump, a Subaru is no match for a hungry and/or angry black bear. It all happened late at night, when the bear somehow locked him/herself in the car and couldn't get out. Around 4:00 am the bear set off the car horn and woke folks up.

So let this be a lesson to all you sloppy drivers who leave bags of potato chips in your car in the north woods: A bear's gonna getcha!

I wonder if you claim this as an act of God or vandalism.

I'd hate to think of what a GM interior would've looked like after the same attack!

This got mentioned in the July 28, 2008 issue of Autoweek on the "But Wait There's More" page.
