a truck weighing station.... off the highway... 
the quartermile numbers are acurate to .1 if i remember correctly... but the speed in the quartermile is off by a couple mph i believe.....
as for the power numbers i'm not quite sure...but there is a % margin error.. don't remember it tho..

Thats not good for me...

How so?
.....although i don't know how the g35 got that way.. but it looks like it just wrapped around a tree or pole.....
and looking at the picture of the S..(from a couple days ago) ... we know he hit a tree at high speeds and it doesn't look like it wrapped around it... just the whole side being smashed in..

Pshh whatev.. I'd rather not spend money on it. It would probably tempt me to go out and do random runs and increase my risk of getting caught doing something stupid.

The "assumption" part I believe. Based on the two photos and information you do have about the S accident, there is no way to ascertain as to which vehicle served its occupant better.
Think about what you said about the S accident. How big was the tree? You don't know nor do I. I agree that my initial thought was that the G35 wrapped a pole, but at a speed that it would take to do that damage, I would have thought the rims would have looked worse. Maybe they do, but the picture is too furry.
I have seen pictures of S2000's wrapping a pole. The engine compartments are sheared from the vehicle- the vehicle becomes two separate pieces. This is a good thing- dispersion of energy. Nothing can be concluded from what little information we know. Wasn't really trying to start anything. I thought perhaps you knew more than the info listed in the linked thread.
