Not exactly a "wreck", but it has been partially gutted, possibly made radioactive, and is now subject to asteroid impacts, alien probes, and could end up in the Sun someday, so likely "done" as an earthbound motor vehicle...
 
Interesting that most of the damage is front-end. Brakes (or, lack thereof)?

Yes, that has been my opinion - that Roadster was "under-braked" for the power / torque. And rear-ending someone else was one of the possible hazards of driving them. If you have a Roadster and see another group buy for upgraded brakes, I would vote you get them.
