I wonder if the owner was badly hurt, hopefully not?

That one would not be an easy fix, even if you could find parts. It would make a better parts car !!!

 

Looks like the car might have hit a deer at high speed too since the wing is still up. I'm sure the driver walked away just fine.

 

That wasn't no deer! Hitting a deer at high speed wouldn't even do that much damage, it would just end up in the windshield.
That had to have been another car, or a concrete median on a divided highway.

I like how the add says "WOULDN'T COST MUCH TO FIX TO THE RIGHT GUY. HERE IS A REAL BODYMANS SPECIAL".

LOL, that car IS totaled for sure...even the firewall is smashed out of shape from everything being pushed into it and cracked up the windshield.

 

That crossfire will never "track" straight! no matter how many times it's repaired, if ever. The reason it's in a junk yard is because... It's Junk. As far as "how fast they were going... well the spoiler is up soooo... it had to be at least 62 MPH.

 

That's not enough damage for 63 MPH, the spoiler might have been manually deployed or tested at the junkyard to see if it still works. From the amount of damage, I'd guess about a 30 MPH crash, or less. The above poster is correct, that car is done, its not worth fixing. With the unibody construction, it's pretty much impossible to repair after such damage.

 

That damage is bad for sure, but you would be amazed at what some body shops can do. And the unibody construction can absorb a great deal force, and not deform. (ever try to break an egg lengthwise with two fingers?) Basically to fix that car, they would cut the A-pillars about midway, and cut the floor pan just ahead of the seats in a finger joint pattern. Then do the same thing to another Crossfire that had been rear ended and weld the two "good" halves together. True the car already has a salvage title, but if the car they used to get the front half off of still had a "good" title, that car could theoretically wind up back on the street with a clean title. CarFax would only say that the car had been rear ended, but most anybody who looked at it would say who ever fixed the back of that car did a fantastic job. When in reality, the entire back of the car was assembled in Germany, and actually had no bodywork at all.
A good body shop set up with the right "Jigs" could turn that car over pretty fast, and probably not have 12 or 13k in it. To an unsuspecting buyer (who played it safe and had CarFax done on it) all he would see is the low mileage, and great bodywork, and probably think he got a fantastic deal for 18 to 20k.
I think in the industry, the term is, The car has been "halved".
Sort of gives a whole new meaning to the term, "Buyer beware".
