Sorry to hear about your accident: what a freakish way to go in a slow motion roll!

 

I once rolled a Mini Cooper S at 100+ mph and, believe it or not, the whole thing seemed like it was happening at half speed in slow time (
Twilight Zone music playing in the background
). Anyway the results were the same as yours, the car was totalled. Glad your okay!!!

 

Seems like a long shot, but I'd be interested purchasing the four wheels if you can point me in the right direction. THANKS.

Sorry to hear about the car.

 

For anyone to argue about the 8 layer pillars, trackless window, etc. What a joke. The trackless window puts the beef on the frame where it is needed. Tracked windows are nothing more than a band-aid to low tolerance body panel fitment. The last time I checked, only <100,000 german cars has stiffer frames. I used to work at a Subaru stealership, and we put a Volvo Cross Country against every model on our lot climbing a steep wet grass hill. The highest we got on the hill with the Volvo was BACKWARDS (we all know the weight bias isnt as good as a Subaru) with traction control and still only advanced halfway to the top. Their AWD systems are inferior. Every Subaru model- even open diff ones made it without any slippage whatsoever. ANYONE WHO ARGUES THAT 8 PIECES OF METAL WITH A FRIGGIN CARBIDE ROD DOWN THE CENTER ISNT A SUPERIOR DESIGN NEEDS TO NOT ONLY REALIZE THIS TYPE OF METALLURGY IS ABOVE THEM, BUT NEEDS TO GET OVER THE FACT THAT VOLVO ISNT THE SAFE CAR IT WAS SINCE FERD TOOK OVER.... Too bad- so sad- I actually do like Volvos. But I like the engineering behind a Subaru and the less status symbol brand image.

 

If any Volvo nuts would like to argue engineering, Ill humiliate them like a knife wielder in a gunfight.

 

So is the Tribeca not as strong then?

This is in regards to a kid on Nasioc. He was hot dogging through a neighborhood at 80+ and ended up going through someones house. His defense was that he was going 12mph when all of a sudden the turbo kicked in full. This was the second time he drove into someone's house.

 

It was the greatest burn in internet history.

 

You know where the post is on Nasioc? Can't find it. :lol:
