we don't drive the safest cars either...

I trust my driving ability and know my car's abilities, but i just don't trust my tib in an accident, PERIOD.


They are pretty safe mang, most of the horrible accidents I've seen folks have walked away from. The worst of the worst folks died though. Almost all of those were extreme though.

I can tell it only by looking on a mirror \/

That looks to me like a 2005 or 2006 Tiburon 4 cylinder. I can tell for one by the shape of the mirror and from whats left of the right rear wheel. 02.gif

Wow that car got messed up pretty bad. Sad for the non drivers and it was extreamly irresponsible to drive like that with others in the car esp 3 others.

What kind of talk is that! WTF?!?! You can't be serious!

Anyway, you can also tell because of the trunk/hatch. I thought for sure it was an RD though, Damn they look similar eh? Rooflines and all. The rear side window also kinda gives it away, but man is it ever close.

Anyway, I'd like to point out my accident. The car was ridiculously impaled, and there was no movement of the firewall, well, not much to notice anyway. This was the second one I wrecked, the other was in the same shape and I was actually going faster when I got hit. So feel safe in the Tiburon guys/gals.

My thoughts are with the families, man is that horrible. Just think of the friends that might have said "no" to going for a ride.
