No details about it. The pics were originally posted at SVTper.

Somebody rolled one...you can still see a huge chunk of earth under the hood...then looks like they hit a large, immobile cylinder while performing a roof-slide...

Kinda funny that the airbags didn't deploy though...

I hope they are ok, but can't help but think the more and more of these pics we see the more our insurance is going up.

Oh God,

that looks like the car met a pole. I hope the driver survived, but that definitely looks as if whoever was driving got hurt pretty bad.

That's terrible!! Definitely rolled it. There isn't a side that doesn't have a scratch on it. I would be interested to know why the airbags didn't deploy. I know the '05 received a 5 star rating in the head on collision, but taking a look @ these pics it doesn't look like it's going to pass the rollover test. Although as I recall there was only an 8% chance of one rolling over. :scratch: Wish we had more details.

Side impact, therefore the front airbags won't deploy. I assume it wasn't equipped with side airbags.

Oh I don't know, that piece of tree branch seems to like it... (referring to the pic of the interior, look at whats on the seat)...

Driver's side fender looks OK...


If you look closely there is dirt wedged into the front calipers, and in the engine bay, defintely left the road and took a tumble.

That's absolutely horrible! I hope they survived and their injuries weren't too severe but looking at the collapse of the roof over the driver it doesn't look promising.


Those dent patterns look as if the car was a piece of crumpled tinfoil.

Unfortunately it is cheaper for me to play in a Corvette than my stang. Guess the majority, notice I didn't say everyone, that buys a Vette drive properly and don't try to see what the car can do on city streets, unlike most Mustang owners.

I have a feeling that this might have been a test vehicle based on the building and parking lot in the background.
