I have to admit, it doesn't look great. That kind of damage has probably destroyed the rear subframe and possibly the chassis frame rails. If it's not a salvage title, have body specialists seam weld the entire chassis and place reinforcement everywhere. A friend of mine wrapped his WRX around a tree, got a salvage title, then went to the body shop and basically told them to slap on a hundred pounds of reinforcement. Car drove as stiffly as a road racer.

That said, hopefully that kid gets what's coming to him. What an idiot. Hitting a parked car?! Seriously?
