wish they could have salvaged the seats/lip/rims, etc. So sad to see an e30 wrecked, on purpose or otherwise...

[M42Technik]

Damn I've had that PDF for ages, should have posted it here.

Note there is very little A pillar damage.

This DOT file is public domain...

I also have other crash test information that is not...

If I get the chance I'll ask some of my old friends what the conditions of use are, and if it's all cool, I'll post them here as well...

But imagine how it would have survived with your Reynolds Wrap bandaids.

The pre 9/87s didn't fair as well I don't have DOT's docs on that one.

Paint it flat black and it'll be just fine.

But imagine how it would have survived with your Reynolds Wrap bandaids.

Well I mean, that one has bumpers, so it's legal right? Look how they totally protected the car, it's still good!
