A friend and my Mrs took this 996 through a wall ( broke it ) and came to rest against the side of a brick building....

Both walked away with tiny cuts, few aches and pains but very shaken.

Both front airbags and the driver's side airbag were deployed...driver has burns on the his right arm apparently from the airbag explosion. Comments ?

Goes to show how safe these cars really are.

Wow. Glad to hear the driver and your Mrs are OK. I guess they were lucky the wall wasn't any stronger.

As an aside, I had a mate who was hit by a car, driven through a wall and dumped on the other side. He got away with some nasty cuts and a broken arm - after being driven through a wall on the bonnet of the car!!! They just don't make walls like they used to...
