Joke or not, glad to see how well the car took such a direct hit - look at the driver/passenger compartment, almost completely intact.

Haha, didn't fool me either...first thing I noticed was the stock wheels.

Glad it was a joke, and I hope whomever that car belonged to is ok.

Agreed. My dad was t-boned by someone at 40 miles an hour. Dad was pulling out of a parking lot on a green light and the guy was texting. Dad was in a coma for 12 weeks and remarkably came out of it ok, but will never be quite the same.

our cars are designed to take a hit.. thus we are rated top of IIHC if i recall..

in other news.. kobe tore his ACL


Kobe Bryant will miss the remainder of the season after tearing his ACL. This is a huge blow to the Lakers who are in the midst of a 3-team-race for the 8th and final spot in the Western Conference Playoffs. Get well soon.
bad joke... never joke around nba players during playoffs

I'm really happy our cars stand up so damn well to what seems like a hard head-on collision. Crazy.

Dammit. All I could think about was how much time and money you put into the car. I was getting all emotional n' shit. Might have actually pooped my pants a bit too. Or that could be from my severe drinking problem. Anyhow...
Thanks, now I need to throw away a perfectly good pair of underware.

Peace,
