think the spare tire was on pre or post crash. if pre crash, then relevant to the accident?

Looks like a motorcycle hit it at high speed. Unless you're riding a tank, a high speed bike will do that to any car.

Motorcycle? A double wide one? Lol


Chris, in all the accidents I've seen here, it's pretty safe. In this scenario though... I think in any car the passenger would've been fúcked

Not many cars would take that blow well if any. I wonder how my tank would of taken the hit.

Wow! That's terrible looking.

I think the spare was put on post crash because it looks pretty clean compared to the rest of the car.

That, or the spare on the rear cause an issue and the car wrapped around a tree?

Or it got t-boned by a Smart car.

I doubt our Zs are the safest cars on the road, but that's not why I bought mine... Safety is probably not a top priority when designing any sports car, really.

actually the car is pretty safe, most of the time it is the tard behind the wheel that makes it unsafe.
