Ouch, I might be worth e-mailing them to see if the motor still runs.
Could be fun for a build up without down time.

Looks like it hurt!

Hey wasn't there a body without an engine recently?

I don't think the engine would be worth much, or the transmission, or the drive shift, or the steering wheel, or the exhaust, or the...maybe the tail lights would be OK.

...anyone else notice the spoiler is stuck in the "up" position? As mentioned in a previous thread, that's a clue as to how fast he/she was going!

I think that expecting the engine to have escaped major damage would be highly optimistic. Ditto anything else in front of the steering wheel. Salvage value? I wouldn't mind those leather seats in my base coupe, but I am sure they too would be damaged by the discharge of the side air bags. Perhaps the only value remaining in it for any of us is a reminder of what can happen, if temptation gets the better of us on public roads.

YIKES!!! Not much salvage there... Except for some bits... Shame, I could have used an extra crate motor... That was a HARD direct hit!!!

my spoiler's popped most of the time i'm driving too; could have been manually deployed. but judging by the severity of the hit, i would guess youre right --

For as bad as the damage looks...
The cockpit still looks in tact. That's reassuring.
I wonder if their legs were OK or if they were crushed.

I was thinking the same thing. If it was a high speed hit, the cabin looks pretty good.
