so this saturday i was on the way to the movies with my girlfriend. i was on a bridge on I-99 and i saw a car stopped up ahead. when i hit the brakes i slid out on the ice and lost control. right into the back of an explorer at like 50. then to make it worse, right after we got out another car hit my passenger door. there ended up being 5 cars involved. but the only injuries were a chipped bone in my hand and my girlfriend's ankle got bruised up pretty good. my car is almost definitely totaled. and to make even better i had just ordered clean side markers and Z3 fenders
front end damage front again another of the front where the second car hit side again |

WOW! Glad you're ok man, that was a bad hit!
These cars must have had excellent crash ratings, for you to walk away with such little injuries. -------------------- ◊◊◊ My F/S Thread! ◊◊◊
QUOTE (14:19:21) Daniel: That was a JDM hole in the side of the box too. There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.

We play Taps for the auto in your honor sir, sad loss. Glad to know it took good care of her owner; that is a serious mess! I'd get the front T emblem off that one and keep it on my keychain. Dang I love these cars!
Not to sound like a vulture, but if you're parting anything from the interior, I'd be interested if you're selling any of it (though insurance totalled you out no doubt). Trying to resurrect a 94 someone used and abused here on island and now I am giving her the tlc she needs. Go get another one and post some pics! |
