I seem to recall seeing -- probably on Snopes.com, now that I think of it -- other photos of the car from other sources, including newspaper articles. (quick search of Snopes) Ah, yes, http://www.snopes.com/photos/automobiles/lumber.asp]here it is.

The distinct irony is they caused far more monetary damage to their car than it would have cost just to rent a truck for the distance, or to have just bought the materials locally and rented a truck or driven several trips. Between driving the rear shocks through their upper mounts, essentially wrecking the sidewalls of both rear tires, probably bending the rear half-axle rather out of true, plus whatever structural damage appears to have been starting to the rear of the roof and those rear pillars. (I half expect they would have had the rear window actually blow out at some particularly nasty bump.) Of course, this last is assuming that the vehicle could actually move with all that concrete and the wood weighting the wheelwells down ONTO the rear tires like that.

It's part of a series of ads in Japan that feature TLJ as an alien observing life on Earth to promote Suntory's Boss brand canned coffee. English translation provided by a Youtuber in the comments.

For more musical Tesla coils, check out Arc Attack. These guys are Texans, and have been doing this at Makers' Fairs and Burning Man events for a number of years now. They also got onto "America's Got Talent" last year, where they did "Iron Man" on Tesla coils for Sharon Osbourne (her response: "If you ever cut an album for this, I think I know a singer....").

“We can never undo what we have done. We can never go back in time. We write history with our decisions and our actions. But we also write history with our responses to those actions. We can leave the pain and the damage in our wake, unattended, or we can do the work of acknowledging and fixing, to whatever extent possible, the harm that we have caused.”
