Of course I hope there were no serious injuries... but a 5 speed Formula with only 16k miles... That just sucks!

Could still be some pieces, parts worth salvaging if anyone is nearby. Seats, taillights, wing, etc.

I'm trying to think of cars that can go UNDER a Fiero, and I'm not coming up with anything?

Look like it was hit in drivers door, then pushed into a curb on passenger side.

You've obviously not seen many japanese cars lately. Slammed with the wheels sideways would put them at about the right hight for that, especially some of the smaller ones, and against a stock height Fiero.

Plus camber == no control. Looks like someone drifted right into that poor Fiero.

A contact on the left side probably caused an out of control spin or over-correction yielding a left side curb impact on the opposite side of the road (180 spin). Looks like something a teen-aged son would do when he snuck it out to joyride.

I always wonder if those guys can go around sharp corners. Extreme negative camber on a curve.... Wheel gotta be angled pretty weird I would think?
