yeah if that were me id be pretty mad

[Knipps]

:oops:

[LTb1ow]

Woah.

[Formulalt1]

Damn, they really know how to crumble huh. I am curious to see what the other car looks like cause that car looks like they must have been doing like 100+MPH. I am shocked it didn't go up in flames.

[cdacda13]

I'd still buy it.

[Slo86Bird]

looks better now then when it was "new"

[madness410]

i mean im sure the motor and trans are still good

[NJ Torque]

i'd kill them.

[Teds89IROC]

i'd kill them.

..x2

[Formulalt1]

i'd kill them.
I don't think you would get convicted either. I could totally see temporary insanety kicking in if someone did that to my car and didn't have insurance or the money to cover the damage. I think I would just go ape ***** and start taking people out.

[thunder]

i'd kill them.

x3 yup

[NastyEllEssWon]

whens the part out start :wink:

[sweetbmxrider]

in for the killing and the part out :nod:

they seriously must have been hauling. its amazing how well the car held up. the driver door looks rather mint and the sunroof is open and the glass looks intact. that says something.

[BonzoHansen]

I wonder how fast they were going - they had to be going at least a wee bit fast, I'd suppose. It actually looks like it did pretty good. Look at the 1st pic, the roof does not appear to be bent/twisted at all and the sunroof is still intact, and in the last pic the door line still looks pretty straight and even the 1/4 window is still in place. The rear seat area looks unscathed as well.

[maroman88]

wow that blows!

as far as parting it out goes... the drivetrain will sell, but theres no real market for other parts yet, noones had the car long enough to break common wear items lol

[Jensend]

Depending on the impact speed, the gas tank looks like it may not be that well protected in a crash. Surprised there was no fire.

As for parts, the brakes are probably fairly desirable for someone looking to upgrade an earlier car.

Guessing the driver of the offending car is underaged. Pretty sure the parent's/family are liable for the damages. Of course, there's still likely a loss due to depreciation. As long as the people in the Camaro are unhurt, it's just a matter of replacing the car- which is obviously in production. Hopefully, with good crash photos and a good lawyer, the court will provide appropriate compensation and punishment.

Anyone know the impact speed?

[creeper]

those mufflers are massive

[baddest434]

rear ended by a bunch of teenagers driving with no insurance / licenses

so now the parents of said a-holes will get sued ?

i'd kill someone too!!! that sucks for the owner. atleast he won't have to return it for a recall.

Ahahahahah :lol:

[nj96z28]

Im in Ireland , reading this from my MSI Wind crapbook. I almost cried. No, I cried. wait, still crying. Yes, I check Fboa from Ireland.

[Iroc-z86]

i'd kill them.

x4.. then claim temporary insanity.... I was in an accident a few months ago with a friends car and it was the other persons fault, i kept cool but in this situation i would kill someone.

[NjbadSS]

wowww.. I thought about this the other day actually.. when are we going to see the first crashed one..and here the trend begins. This was from someone else being stupid, but we will see a lot of stupid people wrapping them around trees and poles unfortunitely

[BurninrubberGT]

X whatever its up to on killing them

thats horrible, guy's been waitng so long for it, finally gets it and its wrecked by a bunch of idiot kids without licenses, i hope they are never allowed to get a license in their life.....but on the bright side this guy can afford a bunch of camaro's after he sues :lol:

[BonzoHansen]

I want the seats & console too!

I love interweb macho talk! Kill them! Yes, go to jail over a car! Don't be dumb, do the grown up thing - sue the crap out of them! LOL

I assume the tank is further forward - the don't hand then out the rear like on my 77 anymore. Just from these pics, which are few, it looks like it took a hit pretty good. I see no fluid leaking anywhere.

[BonzoHansen]

Also, I forgot..DIBS!!!

[baddest434]

Also, I forgot..DIBS!!!

thx i had forgotten all about him :rofl:

Couldn't agree more. If you ever do track events, the first thing they tell you is not to drive any car you can't afford to write off and walk away from. While this was on the street, the same basic logic applies. It's a machine: it can be replaced. If you can't afford it, don't drive it. There's always the chance the impossible or unthinkable will happen.

[band77one]

little duct tape and a car wash will make it as good as new haha

[BigAls87Z28]

That rear sheet metal is so complex, that any hit like that with any Camaro will equal a total out.
I think that could drive up cost of insurance rates in good time.

[sweetbmxrider]

i have no problem reasoning human life with material goods :D

[band77one]

i agree about the insurance possibly going up if the back crumples easily, but, also would be helpful to know what make/model hit them and how fast.

[madness410]

looks like a tank at 5 mph, or a toyota camry at 100 lol

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

looks like a tank at 5 mph, or a toyota camry at 100 lol

A Challenger? :lol:

[BigAls87Z28]

It slammed into the back of the Camaro because the Camaro stops about 40 ft shorter then the Challenger...
Not that its easier to crumple, but that the sheetmetal is going to be much more expensive to fix. The way the fender is shaped with the body, its one of the biggest things they worked on with the car. Its why the trunk opening is so small yet the trunk is massive.

haha yup

cars come before other peoples lives :rofl:

[Frosty]

That my friends is why GM builds some of the best vehicles structure wise. Look at the roof lines and the shape of the cabin, barely any distortion. Yes the car is beyond totaled but that driver walked away(well maybe not depending on back/neck issues but you get my drift). The integrity of that car held up and then some.

I wish I still worked at my old job so I could get my hands on the collision diagrams, I'd love to see how the inner-structure is made up on those things.

[String]

wow.

[Mike]

that is why you buy uninsured motorist coverage, and gap insurance

[Slo86Bird]

is the white stuff on the floor his blinker fluid?

[madness410]

nah GM put a carton of milk behind each bumper of every new camaro.

[maroman88]

battery acid? isnt that in the trunk now

[Mike]

your all wrong........bigal came upon the scene before the pics were taken.....

[FlyingDutchman]

100% agree. My friend just got hit at the bottom of my street, like 1 hr ago. 05 suburban vs 09 toyota minivan, the minivan backed out into her rear pass quarter panel. Basically the rear quarter of the suburban was a wee bit wavy with like 2 holes in the plastic fender, whereas the minivan lost the rear end (bumper lights etc.)

AMERICAN FTW!!!! :nod:

[Crayface]

The hardest part i would have in this scenario if i owned that camaro, is which gun to use? haha

[BigAls87Z28]

Nah, hardest part would be do I burn the body, or burry it in the Medowlands...

[PolarBear]

looks better now then when it was "new"

:rofl:
So true! :nod:
If I ever win the lottery I am going to buy one (since it isnt an F boday anymore and doesnt deserve to be on this website) and bring a saw and cut it up at the dealership

[HeadlessNorseman]

the car didnt hold up well if they were not hauling...just messin with ya. these are kind of weird paradoxical statements though if the speed isnt given. This looks like a 30-50 mph crash, def not 100! the car would have been destroyed well past the rear crumpling up. A rear quarter angle shot like that will destroy any car though, so they may have not been going fast at all. There isnt much structure in that direction, just sheet metal and suspension

glad someone agrees.

[ta350]

what damage? I just think the trunk badge is alil off center in the first pic

[madness410]

lmao hahah

[firebirdcrazy]

Thats really really sucks

[Mark B]

I would be in jail right now.

[ta350]

It was cursed from the beginning look at the name of the dealer

[madness410]

lol i definately didnt notice that

[Knipps]

I hate when dealers put their crap on people's cars like that. Mine was removed a long time ago but you can still read it if you look at the right angle :evil:

lol a friend of mine bought a 2000 stang GT vert at a dealer... after they worked out a deal, he asked how much they were going to pay him to advertise their delaership with that sticker on the car.... they didnt think it was funny so he told em the deal was off unless the sticker and license plate frames were removed.

[BigAls87Z28]

Ugh, yeah I hate that too. Unless it says Yenko, Baldwin Motion, or Nickey, I dont want anyones special name on it.

My Maxx had the stupid Pine Belt bow-tie on the bumper...ugly as sin.

I've done that. I don't mind removable stuff like plate frames. But stickers and badges (they don't really do that too much anymore) make me mad.
