What would the compact be if a car is going 270mph and runs into wall?

At 270 mph (approximately 435 km/h), the impact with a wall would be catastrophic. There wouldn't be a "compact" in the sense of a neatly compressed car. The car would be utterly destroyed. The force of the impact would:

* Completely obliterate the front end: The engine, chassis, and passenger compartment would be crushed beyond recognition.

* Potentially cause the car to disintegrate: High-speed impacts can generate forces that exceed the structural limits of the vehicle, leading to fragmentation of the car's body.

* Result in a massive explosion: Depending on the fuel type and the integrity of the fuel system, a fire or explosion is highly likely.

In short, the result wouldn't be a compact anything; it would be a scene of extreme devastation. The energy involved is far too great for the car's structure to withstand.
