i doubt a benz or bmw or whatever would've done much good. i've seen S-class Mercedes cars sliced in half crosswise and lengthwise after colliding at speed with trees. doesn't need to be a big tree, even one about 20cm in diameter will do if you're going fast enough.
speed kills, no two ways about it. doesn't matter if you're in a proton or a benz or whatever.
i like to speed once in a while, this sort of thing really makes one reconsider life's priorities. is it really worth risking this to get to a destination 5-10 minutes or even 30-60 mins faster?
Well, the survival rate of getting banged in a Benz is definitely better than in a Kancil. .. in a normal accident. Let's not talk about trees

I don't understand why people say, "if you're going to die, you're going to die". It's like seatbelts, airbags, SIPS, EBD, ABS, etc, all are useless. Maybe those people are Christians/Islams becos to them everything is decided by God.
An interesting observation: most people who speed are the ones who mod their cars the most. Isn't it strange that after modding the car into something you like best, you still have the urge to rush to your destination as fast as possible? It's like the driver can't stand being in the car...
