My condolences to the family and friends of the passenger. Hope the driver recovers. P-cars are getting some bad press recently, not the car's fault - drivers need to keep high speed driving for the track.......

geez, thats terrible. r.i.p to the passenger.

Very sad...
How do we know the car was a coupe?I think it was a cabrio...

the roll bar would have popped up if it were a cab. there is some debris in the back but i dont see evidence of pop up bars

what a mess. RIP to the passenger and god speed to the driver.

i have serious doubts about a 911 after my own crash of one. the rear end gets loose too easily when you are going fast. for my next car, i will probably look for a better balanced car.

be careful out there guys. a cold day or slippery wet road can do you in. weather is starting to get better and I know many of you got the itch!

When and where?
I didnt hear about this on the news.
It's not a Wellington car by any chance?
Was it 150kph or 150mph cause there is a big difference.
Anyway, excessive speeds on our roads is a crazy idea!

Ive just clicked that your the guy from Auckland selling your crazy 911 Turbo!
Nice car,i hope you get a good price for it as it must be the best and fastest in NZ!

Hey thanks for that.

I knew it after seen the car in person at turners auction auckland last weekend.Been told by a sales man about what happend.The man from auckland but crashed in northland.The crash speed estimate given from police is about 240-250km/h so thats about 150mph/h.

Oh ok,wow that's pretty fast speed to be doing on our roads,it's amazing anyone survived at all.
A good reminder to drive safe i guess.
Best place is the racetrack.
Again best of luck with selling that amazing car of yours,if I win lotto I will buy it for sure!

I'm 65 years old & glad that I survived my crazy days & can drive my Porsche & just enjoy the fact that It's faster than I than I will ever want to push it. It takes a certain amount of maturity & self control to own a high performance vehicle. Some think that just because you own such a vehicle automatically makes you a race car driver. I think there is only a few out there that can push a car to its limits & still maintain control. One must know their limitations. A vehicles horsepower should never exceed the drivers IQ.
