Can we please stop hotlinking pics?

GTR vs Tesla Model X

I was surprised to see the Tesla broke in half. Glad no one was sitting in the 3rd row. The GTR didn't fare too well either. The rear of the Tesla hit a Mustang hard enough to get it towed off as well. 4 in the hospital. 

Edit to add: The GTR must have been hauling ass. 

Don't think either one will buff out. 

Given how badly the roof is buckled on the GT-R, I agree that it was hauling ass.

Looks about right.

Those are not smarties, they are some sort of dry paste formed into tablets that should be banned as cruel and unusual punishment by the Geneva convention.

There is room for both American and British Smarties in the world.  What you're describing above are Necco Wafers, which are absolutely a crime against humanity and should probably come with a cancer warning.

"Here's an idea - let's put sweeping compound and food dye together and make something that tastes like medicine, smells like restroom sanitizer, and has no redeeming qualities whatever.  We can make one giant batch and they will last for a hundred years.  We'll just call them a classic."

The Tesla looks like it just unzipped where the floor meets the kickup in the rear.

This is a not uncommon place for cars to come apart.  Rear collision is not given as much priority as front collision, so the structures behind the cabin are relatively flimsy.  There's no drivetrain to get in the way of having an effective crumple zone after all.  So a side hit to the rear quarter very well my just knock it off the car.

Right idea, wrong taillights and rear roofline.

I found it, early '80s Toyota Corona GT. 

In reply to Duke :

We get periodic supplies of Smarties from Edinburgh.

Obligatory picture. We were working on limiting expenses for Christmas this year. My wife is very happy with her leather wrapped steering wheel.

In 1979 or so I had a 29" Alva board set up just like this:

I was never any good at pool riding, though.

That should be a capital offence.

I like Smarties, and Necco wafers, so, you just sit and be wrong.  Although,  I've been known to eat Tums, despite not having heart burn...so maybe it's me?
