a) why would the fire service cut the car in half and not just cut the roof off?
b) why would they, after doing that, put both halves next to each other, with wiring still attatched, facing in perfectly opposite directions?

OK so there was enough force to rip the car clean in half, yet not enough to injure the occupant?
The seat belt restraint at that force would be enough to crush nearly every bone in your body, and rip every organ from it's mounting.
I'd be more inclined to believe it was t-boned, yes, but not at a force that would rip it clean apart.
I may be wrong, but I seriously doubt it.
P.S How do you know the person that replied saying it wasn't cut *really* was the owner?
