    R3V'd Cars, Wanna see a bad one? Post away!

    Just curious to see what you guys may of lived through. I persoanlly have gone through 3 e30s. One was big and will be pictured in a moment. The other was not my fault, and one more was given to the junkman.

    Sorry, these are old, and im sure have been seen by a few, but im in an odd mood and feel like posting this. 70mph + Rain + Turn + Huge rock = No more car, but i walked away. Note: This was back in the day of dumb punk kid.

      No pics, but I use to always own cheap ass cars so even a cracked headlight or damaged hood would r3v the car. Both were taking a turn just slightly too hot, trying to correct for oversteer, over correcting and smacking into something solid. These were before the days of DE schools and I'm happy to say I'm much smarter now.

        Sucks. I dunno about a post your wrecks thread's life expentency will be, but there are a fair amount of dumb punk kids around here, so it will certainly get some replies.

        This was my first car. Then I bought an Infiniti for myself, and then down the road, my BMW. My sister then got it.....and someone else (an extremely fat woman courier) totalled it for us. She ran a stop sign in our neighborhood and put my sis off the road and over a road sign. Insurance totalled the car. Not too bad of a life however, it had about 218K on it.

        So not only do ya have to not fucked up yourself, but be aware of other people trying to hit you too.

          I almost totalled the Acura in the rain, going the speed limit....someone stopped ahead of me, I panicked and locked the brakes and slid slowly into a curb and fucked the suspension. Oh well, that was over four years ago when I 16. And before that, I was driving like a jackass teenager and put it into a ditch luckily avoiding trees doingso and oncoming traffic fishtailing. Only mud underneath and some scratches, so it was a fortunately cheap lesson.

                  Not an e30..... but here's the story:

                  Wife came over here to Europe earlier this year to accompany me on the remainder of my German tour of duty with the Army. So.... I decided that I don't want her in a used car on the autobahn and have it break down and such. Bought a US Spec Dodge Neon (shut up yall!) and had it shipped from the states. Aug 2 I picked it up. In total with all the service charges to get it here (and the Overseas sales programs raping fees) it cost me 14k and some change. I was happy to say the least to get it.... I decided since its new and my wife can't drive stick very well.... I'll break it in for the first 300 miles like it should be. I drove it home (12 miles when I picked it up) took the wife out in it and then went to work the next morning at 6am. I had the car a little over 13 hours and 44 miles when I got hit in a parking lot and caused 5,270 euro in damage. At the exchange rate that was more than 6500 then. With the low mileage and such I argued with the insurance and got 800 euro (about 1000) for depreciation which bought me srt-4 suspension, srt-4 wheels, xenon headlight bulbs, carbon fiber eyelids, and srt-4 exhaust. Here's the pics of the damage. No pics of the car after yet..... I've yet to put the suspension and wheels on.


                  Neon and bmw...


                  and the damage....



                  Mind you this was in a parking lot.... idiot was backing up as I was turning into a spot..... all I hear is tires squealing and then BAM..... *sigh* Yes I stilll have both my feet as I decided not to break one off in his ass..... Mainly cause he outranked me. *LOL*

                    Obviously this was NOT my fault, I was hit from the rear at a stop light. The good news is it is still going, sold to a guy who has more or less fixed the damage and drives it daily. I still see it from time to time.
