I was lucky to walk away from this. I was told that when the police arrived I was in and out of consciousness and after I said "im ok" I can walk away the very next thing I asked was "is my camaro ok." Sadly as you can see here it was a total loss.
I was told I hit black ice and well the article says the rest. Time for an even better camaro

Holy crap... that looks like a horrible wreck. Glad you're ok though. Could have been a LOT worse. This is why I won't drive my good cars in the winter. If you end up buying it back from the insurance company, you could make a LOT of money selling the parts on here.
