sorry bro

Sucks. One of the first things a lot learn is following too close. If I am in any kind of traffic I leave multiple car lengths in front of me. Of course random people will dive bomb in front of me and slam on the brakes but that is better than people stopping short. Live and learn. It definitely sucks.

Sorry for your loss, but I do agree with nwvb bmw, hopefully you can turn this into a learning experience on looking ahead and giving yourself enough room when you drive.

Sorry for what happened, but I agree with these guys. Hopefully it wont happen again. Looking forward to another build thread;)

My thoughts exactly.

Just wondering but what kind of vehicle did you hit?

Just wondering but what kind of vehicle did you hit?

i hit a pickup truck.....well, kinda slid under it, hit the spare tire, and bounced back out.....almost NO damage done to the truck. I was going aabout 25-30 mph

[AbsorbantNut]

^^ you crazy, that's like a 10-15mph hit at impact

I was going aabout 25-30 mph

Like everyone else here... Damn dude that really sucks! It was nice to see your car before that happened. Gotta get another e30 man!!!

[F34R]

You hit wicked hard man, trying keeping your eyes on the road. I think the wheel spirits hated your fake splits yo

Going to collect the good bits and start over?

[10Toes]

Looks like most of it hit above the bumper, all the metal above the bumper is very thin.

[abefroman]

Blows. sorry man. No worries man you will find another.

[tg318is]

That sucks mate. I agree 100% with nwvb bmw on this. I had an accident exactly the same. Its a rough lesson, but it has to be learnt

It's funny I don't get how anyone rear ends somebody. If you keep at MINIMUM 3 car lengths between you and the car in front you'll always have enough braking and maneuvering distance. I usually put even more in front of me.
