A brand new Chevrolet Camaro is now totaled and water-logged after a man drove it off South Shore Drive and into the Rock River on Friday night.

Two men were in the car, the owner sat in the passenger seat while he let his friend test drive it. The owner told police that his friend "wasn't able to handle the power." After losing control and plunging the Camaro into the water, both men were able to swim back to shore.

A tow truck was able to pull the two-day-old car from the river, but it's a complete loss. Both men were left uninjured but police aren't sure how their friendship has fared.
