Never thought I would be making one of these threads as I used to see these types of threads and they would only make me more thankful that I had my car in one piece... But it happened. Wrecked my Celica about a week ago and totaled it. It was early morning and I was tired to begin with, but basically, without going into too much detail, I went off the right side of the 2 lane 2 way road and half the car was on the grass, when I tried to correct it I lost total control when the car went back onto the road and started sliding sideways. Slid sideways for a bit a ways in a ditch, the car hit a driveway which is about a foot and a half higher than the ditch and area of grass I was sliding on, and the car went airborn. Finally came to a dead stop at the sake of a utility pole. It breaks my heart, and this is probably the biggest f*ck up I've ever done in my short life, but it only makes me want to get another one a build it even worse now.... Here are some pics:








Passenger side... Thankfully noone was with me, as they would have been dead...



All in all, nobody died, and I'm still walking and thinking straight. Could be a lot worse. But!

Engine still intact.. =]

I plan on having another Celica by the end of the summer, and have my swap done by summer of 2010.

You're a very lucky guy that you weren't seriously injured. Think of it this way though. Car's can be fixed, people cannot. Its more important that you're OK, and even though its upsetting about your car, there are more Celica's out there begging to be loved!
