Probably not smiling now ... Jason Huljich, left, and, right, his sister Rachel, and his sorry looking Maserati after its forklift fiasco.

The plot outline:

Lady parks brother's Maserati 3200 GT in a construction zone whilst brother overseas
Builders decide to move Maserati with a forklift
Maserati on forklift decides to fall from a height of 2 metres
Maserati ends up on its roof
Builder now facing possible charges

This all happened in Sydney yesterday ... according to the following article from the Sydney Morning Herald, builders have been moving cars that way for a while now.

Oh brother, your Maserati's mashed

I would not move my '84 Datsun with a Forklift nevermind some over-hyped "exotic" Italian car.

Only cars at junkyards with no hope of salvation and missing wheels are meant to be moved with a forklift.
