Before.................












After................






I was driving home from work and tried to change lanes road was still a little wet and me riding with the coilovers bouncing hit a dip wheel hopped while veering right wheels come down dont straighten out, I slam into a guard rail bounc off of it flip twice land on the rood=f and skid down the highway to a stop.

 

that SUCKS!!! glad you are alive and well though... Goodluck with the new car shopping....

 

Damnnnnnn dude!!! That's f'ed up man... How fast were you goin when that happened??? Had to have been a pretty good rate judging from the damage.

So what you getting next? 09 Max?

 

Ouch! I assume you had your seat belt on. Hope you bought gap insurance on that one... Was year was it?

 

ohhhhhhhhhh That has got to be the worst messed up Maxima I ever seen! Thank god you still have your life dude.

 

Damn , glad your OK tho , a Car can be replace but not a life.

 

I saw the first pic and was like ok looks good, then I expected to see some new rims or a paint job or something, but was shocked when I saw that.

 

So you getting an '09?

 

Haven't decided on what car to buy yet. I am truly blessed to be lightly scarred. All i got was 2 gashes on my right hand.

 

Sounds like you got a "pogo" effect with the suspension. Was a nice looking Maxima. I want to replace the stock struts with some AGX adjustable struts. The rear shocks "squat" while accelerating, like that from the factory. Lowering on stock setup only makes the rear squat worse like a pogo stick.

 

Dang son...that is hard core! I am glad to see you are still in one piece. Props to the Max to keeping a homeboy safe and sound.

 

yo me 2 i only saw the 1st pic and i'm like damn this car gona look hot *** **** the rims already look different and hot at the same time... and pow


damn dude i thought my last accident was bad i practically had NO driver seat went airborne into a tree but you topped me... thank god for those 8 airbags and keeping your life!!

 

Lord have mercy That look's brutal, glad that you're ok.

 

That looks real nasty,shame to see a sweet maxima messed up like that,live to see another day that's the main thing.

 

that looks bad man, i think you can buff that out though lol

 

holy **** im glad your okay damn looks really bad wow

 

Same here. Wow. Glad you're ok.

 

Sh*t man thats insane, good to know you made it out in one piece though, thats the main thing at the end of the day.
I was also thinking "yeah, the after pic will be the same car all souped up", then I got a shock, haha

 

Man,thats crazy....Glad to hear you were able to walk away from that with only a few scratches.Good luck with your next purchase....

 

woah... glad your okay man... almost the same thing happened to me 1 month ago. I got me another 6th gen... i am really happy with the saftey and comfort our cars have. Ive seen a lot of accidents that involve our 6th gens and the driver always comes out with only a few scratches.... since my accident i was really happy that my maxima kept me from harm..

 

Awwwwww man I'm so sorry to see that. I've always appreciated your input on our cars and liked your ride. I see you mention coilovers specifically in your post, do you think they had something to do with it? This is definitely in the top two wrecked Maxima's I've seen

On the upside, I'm glad to hear that you are going to be okay. It's really amazing that you come away with minor injuries. Is the insurance going to take care of you?

 

that sucks big time. good thing the maxi kept you safe.

From where in missouri are you?

 

Did you flip the hydrolic switch to pop up that tire....damn. Go go gadget flip my car upside down. that sucks and glad you are ok.

 

OMG... that is aweful. Glad you are ok. Keep us posted on what you get next.

 

Glad your alright, sad to see you crashed your car.

This and many other threads of 6th Gen Maxima owners crashing their cars, with no one else involved is slightly disturbing, my car is essentially sort of stock with the suspension setup, and never once have I not felt stable and secure behind the wheel, even on wet roads, I'm kinda perplexed to see owners who have improved their cars suspension/rims,tires and drive them daily to get into such accidents

 

Man...ouch! I'm glad to hear you're healthy!

Were you drivin with the cruise control on?
Never use the cruise control on wet pavement!

 

damn dude, glad to see you're back here posting and still are in good condition..did you go to the hospital or anything??

OT: what kind of rims were those?

 

Exactly why I won't get coilovers that don't control the rebound.

 

How low was it set and how fast was he driving, I've seen many cars with rims only to have tires that look like slicks, speed and slicks will do exactly what he described

 

glad your ok though man!

Bright side is now it looks like your insur. company owes you some money, big time.

god bless you brother. enjoy your new car shopping when ever you get the time.

 

wow man glad u r ok... grab an 09 maxi..... hate to b the first to ask but ru selling the techno square .... once again gladu r ok

 

The coilovers were bouncing when I hit a dip in the highway trying to change lanes at the same time. My wheels never straightened out and I veered right hard.

The rebound on the coilovers is short so when you hit dips they come quick and sometimes hop. Especially our cars.
I still had some body roll to which contributed.

I had some rain on my car but the roads looked dry but had a little wetness still. No cruise though. It happened so fast some things I still dont get about this crash.

Yeah I had to get a tetanus shot and got the gashes on my hand treated.

The coils were adjustable. It;s the dips and bumps that get you on the road. I hit a dip right where the highway meet the overpass.

I was 2.5 inches lower. tires still had tread on them but the fronts were worn way more than the reas to my surprise.

TS ECU will be for sale along with a few other items after the insurance stuff is taken care of.

 

bam man your lucky to be alive good luck on your new ride

 

good god. you must have been flying.

glad you're alright though.

 

ha i was expecting some new rims or something too

thank god your ok

 

I'm like the others I was looking for something new to have been done to the car too. I'm glad you came out with just a few cuts and by the looks of the car it looks like the structure around the passenger compartment held up pretty good for flipping twice and landing upside down. Hope you have a speedy recovery and good luck with dealing with those insurance people they can be a PITA sometimes.

 

that is what i thought also...glad ur ok..good luck on the new ride

 

BUY a lotery ticket right now.

 

trunk lid looks fine, amazing cause the rest of the car looks like it took one hell of a beating
