We taking a cruise, about 10 of us in our pretty mustangs. I went through the green arrow to get on the interstate and saw the woman coming, but had no time to warn the guy behind me, she ran the red light at around 55mph and t-boned the 07 GT right behind me. All I could do was watch in horror as she slammed in to it and spun him of the road. The mustang held up amazingly well, but it is most likely totalled.

The driver of the stang was fine, he was a little sore later on last night. None of the people in the buick had seatbelts on, and ever one of them was hurt. We were amazed that they even had insurance.

Ohh, man i would go and kill her if the driver of that stang dident. Cell phones and women drivers are a horrable combination. A girl from my school ran into the back of a gravel truck, the cell phone flew out of her hand and hit the windshield. Sorry to hear about the accident.
A little part of my soul just died. But for real, glad he's ok. Bet they $**t themselves realizing they took out a mustang, then seeing a dozen, or whatever it is is, other mustangs pulling over.

Ryan I am glad to hear your friend is ok, its hard to see that one go down. Did he own it outright or was it financed? I would buy it back from the insurance company and make something of it.

I'm pretty sure it was paid off, he had actually just posted an add on craigslist to sell his white 99 Cobra. I doubt the car will ever come back, the chassis is pretty much mangled, the entire rear suspension was trashed, and it never actually recieved any impact, and the roof is bent. It'll never drive right again.
The guy's gonna just buy a Shelby to replace both of his stangs
Man that's terrible! Why must the good die so young! Good thing He was ok. Out of curiousity... that red stuff on the road.. Is that blood?.. or car fluids.?

Well Im sure he will love the Shelby very much :) It may be a 4000lb sled but some action can be taken to bring the weight down. MM&FF was talking about removing 600lbs of stuff in their test steed bring it down it a more acceptable 3400lbs-ish.

I agree with Neo just because it was a woman doesn't mean that was the cause of the accident. Oh and by the way it was an accident. I'm glad your friend was ok Ryan and hopefully the people in the other car were not hurt to bad. Sad to see a Mustang go down, but at the end of the day, guess what, Ford will build another Mustang but none of those people's lives can be replaced, have some perspective fellas it is just a car.
Women are on their phones way too much, I was at a stop light and saw five or six women in a row talking on their cell phones. It's ridiculous. My mom does it too, she'll just call someone and start talking and its not even neccessary.
