Why is this morbid? Death shouldn't be so taboo for people...

I saw some silver evo banged up pretty good in anaheim. Pretty sure the driver walked away too. Never heard of a death yet either

The crash test ratings are always right.

I think it was in 03, when someone went on this board to talk about the death of his brother driving a Evo. It was a sad and depressing post but like others said on this topic. People die driving different cars. It all depends on the circumstance and how you drive. If you really want to drive stupid...... it doesn't matter how safe your car is.

from what I've been hearing, people are coming out from some rediculous accidents out alive from an evo.
you can check out my post in the car wreck thread of a black evo a guy i know wrecked. him and the passenger made it out alive. they spent some time in the hospital and a wheelchair but are alright now. they are lucky.

Which govt crash tests are you referring to? And how will the testimonials from 5% of the Evo ownership prove those results wrong?


A member of this forum died a little more than a year ago after his Evo smashed into an embankment filled with trees. He lost control of his vehicle because he was driving too fast and his car left the ground at the crest of a hill.

WTF is your problem by asking if someone got killed ?
first of all there is nothing to be wonder about
every evo driver is part of our family so do you ever wonder if your mom gonna get killed?

why is everyone freaking out about this. if death is so taboo to sooo many of you how do you live. ^ yeah i have thought about if my mother died, i dont just assume it will never happen, then when it does we arent on bad terms, and i am not unable to coupe with the loss.

as for me, if i do have to go (which i am not afraid of) i want it to be in the evo, something spectacular, not colon cancer thats for sure.
