December 30, 200520 yr Z's link to CoPartfinder leaves me sad. Here's a few reasons why... That one is a 1997 with 52,000 miles! What a waste... That's a Bonneville. Hard to tell. This amazes me... ...same car.
December 30, 200520 yr Go look up some Scion wrecks, maybe that will make you happier. I saw a wrecked xB on a truck on the highway yesterday, and they don't even sell them here.
December 30, 200520 yr Author Well, I also found an '04 Maserati with massive front-end damage and 4,000 miles on the clock. Someone isn't speaking to their father for a very, very long time.
December 30, 200520 yr wow... those all suck, I even grieve for the Lexus IS... it is the coolest car to wear the "L". :(

December 30, 200520 yr There's something especially sad about seeing wrecked cars that were just released this year. :( Case in point: Didn't even get to see its first oil change... :mellow:
December 30, 200520 yr I feel warm and fuzzy now... Where else could I see pics of what I feel like doing? Wish I could have found more like mine...
December 30, 200520 yr "Biohazard" is not good. Bodily fluids or more inside. [post="65056"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post] Yeah...I can't imagine they got everything out of that. :mellow:
December 30, 200520 yr Yeah...I can't imagine they got everything out of that. :mellow: [post="65061"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post] i can't imagine them getting anything out of that. There's got to be somebody still in there. I'm putting my money on a train wreck.
December 30, 200520 yr Had to have gotten sandwiched between two semi's or something. On a more positive note, there are no Soltii's within my zip that match!
December 30, 200520 yr I missed the part about it being our car, so here's a pretty beat up Lumina. I've heard '90-'94 Luminas don't fare well in crashes. Not sure what happened to this one though...the C-pillar was sheared in half.
December 30, 200520 yr Joshypoo I got a booboo, you want to kiss it and make it better? Then you can take me for a ride, afterwards maybe we can go for one in the Solstice. And yellow dart, when are you going to let me play with your dart?
December 30, 200520 yr the C-pillar was sheared in half. That was most likely the fire department's doing.
December 30, 200520 yr nOTHING WRONG WITH THIS ONE AT ALL WITH ONLY 47K NAME THIS VEHICLE: Would you believe it is one of these: Edited December 30, 200520 yr by SingleStylish
December 30, 200520 yr Name what's wrong with this vehicle: I'll give you a hint... you can't see it when its dry!
December 30, 200520 yr Katrina vehicle? [post="65361"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post] Most likely. You could never tell it was in a flood looking at those photos. Makes me wonder how many unknowing people have bought flood cars.
December 30, 200520 yr Tree vs. Scion TC the guy is still living! or i wouldn't have posted it. If a Car has a BIO HAZ on it, it means some one was killed or dismembered in it. If your going to buy a used car or are queazy stop now! Sick thing is, say if this guy shoot himself in his car. The Auction/Junkyard cleans the interior and replaces the window that the bullet exited. They stamp Bio haz on it since its the law. If Bob from Billy Bob used Cars Buys it he knows its a bio haz and that someone was killed in it. When he sells it He doesn't have to tell you that some one blew there brains out in it. If asked is it a bio hax in some States he doesn't have to answer that.
December 31, 200520 yr "Biohazard" is not good. Bodily fluids or more inside. [post="65056"][/post] Yeeeeech... Reminds me of that episode of Mythbusters with the dead pigs in the Corvette... Here are a couple big Mercs like mine... In fact, in this first pic, almost identical to mine: T-bone: Ouch! And the interior: I must admit, though, a lot of these big old cars are in pretty good shape! It's kinda reassuring.
December 31, 200520 yr Oh, and the cars where the A/B/C pillars appear cut... it's because some one was trapped inside so they cut it open wiht the jaws of life. (hence the fire dept. comment)
December 31, 200520 yr Very sad but it could be worse. [post="65509"][/post] Bet you wish that was your STS! :P
December 31, 200520 yr I know this sounds terrible but in a sick way I DO! $9,000 *cha-ching* instead of like the $3000 I'll get on trade in since the car's got 145K miles. :(
January 1, 200620 yr Some of that is really sick. You just KNOW that no one survived some of them. And here is what my vehicle looks like when mutilated: Edited January 1, 200620 yr by S.Myers
January 1, 200620 yr My ACTUAL old wrecked car, for those of you who have not yet seen. It was rolled over on a gravel road, and fared very well considering. I was perfectly OK.
January 1, 200620 yr Well since we're on our ACTUAL wrecked cars.... Here's my first ride, a 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. Three weeks after I finished fixing it from its first wreck, I was cut off by a Mercury Sable and drove through a strip of woods. I tore the nose off the Mercury but the Cutlass was relatively unscathed. The car doesn't look too bad in the photo, but the engine cradle was buckled pretty good. Tends to happen when you hit a granite curbstone at 40. And here's what happens when you let Sixty8 try and negotiate an icy hill with your '79 Coupe Deville :lol: :lol: :lol:
January 2, 200620 yr Gah-ha! For some reason, seeing the headlight on the Bonnie dangling down creeps me out. Sort of like seeing some guy take a punch to face so hard it knocks an eye out of its socket. Blahh...

[post="66285"][/post] Yes, that pic does scare me, especially how it missed the front structural beams. The passenger cell would have held up much better if the impact was a few inches to the right.
January 2, 200620 yr My old 1990 Lumina Euro after meeting the trailer of a turning semi truck while legally parked. The guy never stopped (and possibly didn't even realize he had caused any damage). It ripped a huge gash along the entire driver side, busting out the windows and deforming the doors. The mirror was found about half a block away. We managed to track down the company and they paid us $3000 for the damages. It only took $500 plus labor to get new doors put on, and we did a cheap bondo and paint job on the rear fender...so we came away nearly $2500 better than before. I drove it for two years after that because it still ran perfectly, even if it was a mess cosmetically.
January 2, 200620 yr I guess this is what my '04 Malibu might look like if it were in an accident: And my '05 Envoy:
January 2, 200620 yr I never really understood the government's thing with roof strength but those Envoy photos gave me some insight, especially after comparing them with the other photos of cars flipped over that others have posted.

[post="66312"][/post] Agreed. I can't believe how bad this pretty pearl white '99 Riviera ate it. Some unlucky dude got a face full of A-pillar. :blink:
January 2, 200620 yr I would say that Riviera was parked when it was crushed. Something had to fall on it... notice no marks except for the roof crush. If that car was in motion at the time of loss and had that much roof crush, the sides would be scuffed up somewhere. Also, whatever it was that landed on it bowed the whole car down in the middle. Maybe a semi rolled over on it or something. Edited January 2, 200620 yr by ocnblu
January 3, 200620 yr And here's what happens when you let Sixty8 try and negotiate an icy hill with your '79 Coupe Deville :lol: :lol: :lol: [post="66249"][/post] First off that story deserves it's own thread... second you didn;t tell the best part. The towing company refused to drive down that hill even with their 4wd trucks... they brought out TWO wreckers (one of them being a HUGE international) and secured the first truck wiht the second just in case. The hill was so icy in fact that the tow truck driver said he would not drive down it even with tire chains. The best part is that the car slid that way while I was backign up for my third attempt to get up the hill... all four wheels stopped turning and the car just kept sliding down the road. No damage luckly. :P
