    A car parked by Lake Erie in Buffalo, New York has unwittingly become the latest ice sculpture in the area, as severe winter weather continues to freeze the area.
    The car, which was frozen solid in recent snowy conditions, will need more than an ice scraper and antifreeze to get moving again.

    The picture of the vehicle went viral after being tweeted by Matt Bové, a weatherman for Buffalo news channel WKBW.

    Mitsubishi Lancer... judging by the smaller diameter wheels, not an EVO.

    That is at a friends of mines bar in Hamburg just outside Buffalo. I am guessing the owner was not too happy when they sobered up and went to get the car the next day.

    A natural problem unlike the folks who saw fit to break into mine and two other cars in a hotel carpark on Thursday night.

    A broken window and the GPS/Radio removed with the cables disconnected and then the ends cut off and left, seems like they wanted to do the most damage. The alarm didn't go off, the doors were still locked.

    As is typical, the peripheral cost in terms of dollars and inconvenience far exceeds the value of the item stolen.
