No sympathy for the driver.
Killed a darn good Bonne.

Inexperienced driver in a far too powerful car.

On top of the fact that it was wet, and with bad tires, and excess speed. Failiure to maintain control indeed.

Man, these cars hold up well to accidents. 3 turns....wow, thats amazing.

Glad he'* ok, glad he was drivning a bonne, but i will say that kids my age and his age really should not have SSEis...way too much power for us, i will stick to my low hp LN3, and keep the safety of a bonneville. Maybe when hes 30 he can control the kick of that extra letter in "SSEi"

LN3, L67, L36, it really doesn't matter imo. I could roll a 3 cylinder Geo Metro under the right conditions. The fact is the young man had a lapse in judgement, and he'* alive to tell about it. It is a lesson learned.

Looks like it held up fairly well.

Yeah, power doesn't matter. I have a hard time keeping the L27 under control. It'* just so tempting.

Oh my.....oh my oh my oh my! Thank God he is okay....amazing...it'* totally amazing he walked away from that. Thank you for sharing....make sure you take the SSEi badges off and frame them with before/after pics as a reminder for your son later on in life. It blows my mind to see what these cars go through....makes me feel so much better every time I see my son get behind the wheel of the DitchHopper...as parents, we cannot protect our kids when they are away from us...thank goodness the Bonnies can.
