My CAR WAS HIT AGAIN!! i just cannot win

6:50 AM
Some lady in a jeep wrangler said an oncoming car swerved into her lane and she tried to avoid it.


i am soooo upset i am calm..

car is more than likely totaled..
if it is not, i am returning it back to stock and selling.

you don't need to sell it.. you need to move or park it in a garage..

show cars need to be garaged.. but still.. normal cars don't get hit that often. soon they will start blaming it on the color

Totally sucks.

Totally agree. I wouldn't mod my car unless I have a garage. That sucks dude.

That sucks man. You have the same kind of luck I did with the blue car. 2 accidents in a few months.

I'd assumed its totaled. Look on the bright side...its time to go car shopping!

Crying shame

It amazing....how can people be SO stupid. IF (aint no way) she was even CLOSE to 25, that would have been just a headache for you. That was a SERIOUS impact. I would guesstimate about 50, slammed the brakes and probably hit around 40-45.

My opinion, take it for the dos centavos, is that you will never be happy with the repair job. The damage is just way to serious. Thats even if insurance does not total it.

And for those that are saying garage, I dont think that is an option for him.

Good luck and may you turn out well on this one.....we all hope.

Omg that sucks!

As far as the damage, keep in mind that she had a 97+ Wrangler (I can tell from the bumper ends still in the street) and those front ends aren't very forgiving, so it may seem like she was going a lot faster. Either way, sorry about your car...again.

OMFG that sucks!!

Your car was freakin SWEET too!!


Well, it's definitely totalled. Your car looks about like my Accord V6 did after it was rear-ended at about 20-25 mph while I was stopped only your is even WORSE so she was probably speeding. Stupid b1tch.


UGH...good luck on whatever you do in the future.

Jeff, if you go turbo, go for the Evo. Saw one on the highway and the car is sick.

Smashed up red maximas make baby jesus cry!

**** man! Talk about bad luck! And the 2nd looks worse than the 1st. Sorry man. Just laugh. Collect insurance money from these idiots and get yourself a turbo 240. =) I think these guys were aiming for the altezza tails.

Sorry to see it crunched up like that. When I was just sitting there in almost the exact same spot when we went to Carlisle, I said to myself like 8 times I WOULD NEVER park here. You said the chick swerved...did the other driver magically 'disappear' or did you get to verify her story?
