There's nothing I hate more than seeing a wrecked evo. Nice to know the evo can hold up to an impact like that though. Glad to hear that everyone is okay

Glad you and your passengers made it out ok. I wouldn't be surprised if your car is totaled and I wish you the best with your insurance quotes and getting yourself into a new Evo.

omg. thank god you're ok. I'm really pleased to read that everyone walked out.
The evo doesn't have a front impact rating, because of the FM Intercooler - I think... but I was hit by an 18 wheeler last week, at about 10-15mph, and all I can say is that this car is tough.
It's a rally race vehicle!
I have about 10,000 bucks worth of repairs - and it's not totalled. My baby should be in my hands in a week or so.
Take care, nobody was hurt and that's the main thing.

As everyone has mentioned, I'm glad you and everyone involved are OK! Gap insurance is good if the insurance company is paying out less than what you owe on the car if it's totaled, I added to my loan for mere $100.

A benz t-boning an Evo at 60 mph would kill the passenger without a doubt. I was t-boned in my Toyota Paseo (1800lbs) by a Crown vic going 30mph and I was knocked unconcious (I was thrown from the drivers seat into the passenger door). 60 mph would have killed my sorry *** for sure
