Wow! That's a very similar crash to the kids who just bought one the same day and totaled it leaving the sellers house. She was nervous selling it to them She said but let them have it anyway! Ughhh

Makes me wonder how youngins' can handle the power of late model Camry's and Accords?
Temporary tire on drivers side front
More like a tire & a steel rim from a Crown Vic ex-police car. Driving on mismatched tire diameters on the same axle is a recipe for handling problems, especially at high speeds. The same thing would happen even if using the actual spare tire that came with the Marauder, whether it's the full size one or the donut spare that was equipped on 2003 300b or 2004 MM.

'power' in a Camry and an Accord is an oxymoron....
besides 99.5% of those vehicle owners dawdle along in the fast lane at 49 mph with their high beams 'ON' because one low beam is burned out and they are too stupid to get it fixed.
They also cut over to their exit at THE last second after jamming up traffic flow for miles.
Did I mention that I hate Camry and Accord owners?
BTW: I've never seen 2 Panthers wrapped around trees like that....Sad to see.... and I'd imagine that, tough as a Panther Chassis is, no one walked away from either crash.

Camrys and Accords are as quick or quicker than a stock MM Joe Walsh, but I do agree most seem to be driven by commuter drones.
Thats exactly right, except here its the prius, kia, and mini suv drivers who hog that fast lane / passing lane, and the very last second dart 3 lanes over. Here everyone has gotten tired of it, and daily you will see people go out of their way to block these ass hats from cutting over. Love it when they cut you off, then i jockey over to the lane they want and just **** block them from exiting. They learn real quick when the next exit is miles ahead. F em!

Joe's Wrecked DTR rebuild thread
Not the sled I just got from my FIL. 2005 XLE V6, slow as a regular MGM with the parking brake on. Very overrated car company.
Toyota Kwalitee...ha! ..i suppose Japanese cars have their own charm. But make mine a Ford. I do notice, in general - Japanese cars are very hard to work on, and no consideration is given to access to or ease of repair for wear/tear items. For example certain sensors need half the engine compartment components removed. Do remove the transmission pan you need to remove the crossmember /engine mount. No coating on the rear hub assembly (which should not need replacing at 115K highway old man miles anyway) so a MAPP torch is required to remove the brake backing plate. And so on..
Expensive parts....RA Panther rear brake backing plates are $40 bucks, a Camry pair is $200...same stamped metal with some holes punched in it...
That's why I immediately modded my Marauder after I bought it, and why I bought a TTV6 Fusion Sport....
I love watching Camry 'S'/XLE/XSE and Accord 'Sport' models rapidly fading in my rearview mirror!
(My Marauder was a very fast black 'taxi' to those twits, and my Fusion is a very fast black 'rental car'....lol)
LOL.....I do the same thing....block their lame a$$es from cutting over at the last second.
I always do it in a non-aggressive, dawdling, 'not paying attention', oblivious to my surroundings - kind of way.....just like those dip$h*ts drive!
