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
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!!!!

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
