Maybe the inexperienced take the hype that pumps up the FR-S's handling a bit too literally, particularly when they say, "it can take any corner at 90mph." lol

How many v6 mustangs get trashed? a lot, trust me, a lot.

Looking at the one in the vid/iihs pictures, i doubt its the same one. No white on the front tires of the car in question, plus the back window being blown out would suggest the car rolled. Can't tell more than that from the picture.

Also, scroll to the bottom of that article and check out the crash videos. Scary, but my peace of mind is intact.

Ouch, that's pretty serious! Good thing they got such good safety ratings! Hope the driver is OK and not planning on f**king around with the next one, if he was indeed f**king around.

I don't think it rolled, you can see where it hit the pole just behind driver's door and that would have deformed the cabin and blown out the window.

Does your insurance really go up every time one of these is crashed? If not, you can probably stop saying that...it's a car. People will crash them.

You are dead on (no pun intended) on that. I understood perfectly from your thread title what you meant.

LOL some people like to make something out of nothing right?... The thread title only implies one thing: The car was totaled, it will not be driving anymore.
