          Holy shit! Glad you're alright. Pretty reassuring to see it mostly kept its shape after rolling 6 times. I knew E30s were pretty sturdy, but I didn't think they were that good.

          Hope you heal up quick, man.

            Glad to hear you survived. A shame looked very clean. I cried after a drunk driver hit my e30 and my parents told me I should get rid of it.

                  I think you should consider this one extreme luck. The car didn't save you, luck did. If that thing had hit the wrong way the roof would have gone into pancake mode.

                  Regardless, I'm glad this turned out to be a mistake you can learn from. Far too many don't get that opportunity. Be sure to take time to truley consider how lucky you are and just how close you came to taking a long dirt nap.

                  This is coming from someone who hit a deer at around 70mph, on a motorcycle.

                    While it sucks that the car is gone, there are plenty of e30's out there. Try to be thankful that you'll be around to drive another one.

                    I wish you a speedy (and hopefully not too painful) recovery.

                    Good luck!

                      Jesus christ look at that pillar strength.
                      If that was a newer Corolla, chances are you would have been killed real quick.

                      Take-away: Make sure your next E30 has a manual transmission.
