Angry My 6 month old Release Series 3.0 TC after accident

This is my 6 month old 3.0 release tc after a guy ran a stop sign at about 20-25 mph and t-boned the passenger side, causing me to go off the road and into a ditch where i rolled over the driver side and came to a stop on the roof. at least this can show you how well this car held up in that situation....

Glad you made it thru OK. Sorry the tC got it. You are correct, the tC is a very stable and safe platform. Scion designed it on the safety basis of Volvo. There is so much more to this car than the majority of the people know about.

Glad to hear you are ok. I had a bad accident with my first tC. I hit the center divider aaround 60 and caused me to roll about 5 times landing upside down. crawled out and walked away with no scrach. These cars are built very well !!! saved my life...

Double Amen on that. God was watching out for you when you got the nudge to buy a Scion tC! Looks like someone is going to score a RS 3.0 Kenstyle upper grille for their ride.

I think navy is right. It seems like they are incredibly easy to damage (break-away style). 7mph to the front end of mine and the whole front end (hood, bumper, fenders, and a slew of other things) had to be replaced.

Glad to see you are alright Savior.

front airbags won't normally go off unless you have a good front end collision looks like he just clipped the side.
