Man, this sucks. I never met the dude, but anyone who loves Circa Survive and FDs like I do has to be legit. RIP Andrew.

I remember seeing a breaking story on the news the other day of LEO having sighted a yellow car crumpled up way off a road in a forested area, which sounds a lot like this story. The car appeared to be a current yellow Mustang. It was taking rescuers a lot of work to get to it, but the occupant was already considered dead.

This article says indeed, 2012 Ford Mustang: http://altadena.patch.com/articles/m...ational-forest

Here is an aerial video of the crash site: http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/video...clipId=6762302

RIP Andrew.

Never met Andrew, but anyone who loves Yellow AND has a CYM sounds like a champ!

My condolences.

Life is precious, live it up everyday!

wow that is truly sad. I did not know him, but i am scared of automobile accidents.. One of my biggest fears.

Hate to think that he might have been driving hard up there and just lost it..., being as they say no other cars where involved.

Just a couple months ago, a guy I knew had passed away just a few miles down from my house. and he was a fellow 240sx owner (when i had a 240sx, I used to talk to him since he was a local) had the cleanest s13 stateside (one of the first to do kouki 180sx conversion imo) http://zilvia.net/f/off-topic-chat/4...land180sx.html
