Hit by a semi most likely. Although, I wouldn't rule out a roll-over. A very bad one.

I wish I could get a hold of the guy I need some interior pieces and the top silver window trim. Then again do you think any of it can be used.

I think you could safely say you could reuse the air in the tires, that's about it.
Now thats what I call a fastback.

See below, I'm surprised they survived, they were probably related to Gumby.

A friend of Pop Tart's wasted his Crossfire coming back from Vegas. They both walked away.

The photos look like it slid on the flattened back end. It probably flipped and skidded.

that is some serious road rash on the top side...

i would say that baby went off a cliff or an over pass onto another roadway (from some high altitude)... hit the top/rear at impact and was sliding on an additional bit of asphalt for quite sometime...

must have happened at a high rate of speed... that had to hurt.

Thumbs up Re: any one know how this happened?

Again, as bad as that Xfire was screwed up, the passenger compartment was still in pretty good shape. I can see if they were strapped in tightly, how they walked away, probably as sore as hell, but still in this world.
Thanks to MB
