This happend in new zealand.Rolled over-over at over 150 mile/h..Passanger died,driver serious invalid..Car now selling at auction..Can't understand why it selling as none ok parts at all..Who the hell will buy a bloody wasted car..Stupid insurance company...
Wish passanger rest in peace and drive safe everyone!!

 

Wow...how terrible. 150 on the track or street? I hope no one else (other drivers, etc) were hurt.

 

Yikes!! R.I.P.

Was this a coupe or a cab?

 

thatll buff right out!

 

Its a coupe!!
He lost control on the road and rolled into a hill lap...No other cars hurted.

 

outside of the roof collapse she looks like it held up relatively well....wonder if a roll cage would have helped? Not that I advocate that type of driving but if its even in the cards you need to consider beefing up the safety factor.

 

Engine is prolly usable.

 

150 on the street? as can be seen, not the best idea. RIP to a fellow 997TT owner! maybe the Nissan speed governor on the GTR is not such a bad idea after all.

Roof was probably cut off to extricate occupants.

 

To crash at 150 that actually doesn't look too bad compared to other cars I've seen at similar speeds.

 

thats horrible, r.i.p. to the passenger. i dont know how the driver survived that but i hope he is able to recover, being responsible for a friends death is enough punishment.

 

You dun say that dude not when theres fatalities involved.

 

Agreed - but with proper grammar and punctuation.

 

+1. This is deeply saddening news. For both involved.
The only good that comes from this is (yet) another lesson about leaving high-speed driving to the track. Our cars are so competent that it's both frustrating not to drive them on the edge - which comes at extreme speeds, and the effortless means that the car travels at any speed below that edge. But there's no way to cheat basic physics. Any mistake or unanticipated condition can take every car over the edge quickly and with horrible consequences.
Sorry to sound like our collective third grade teacher, but this one should be tucked away as a reminder.
