    How lucky am I? (Pics)

    I went to Windsor for my cousins B-Day last Saturday, since in Canada its legal to drink when your 19. Only plus to living in Detroit, Windsors a 30 min drive. I was having a great night celebrating with my friends and family and I was pumped on going to the casino after to try and make some winnings. That didn't happen, I ended up losing $150. So I'm feeling veryy down as I'm making my way back through the tunnel. I had my music turned off and I had my window cracked down. The line stretched across the whole tunnel and it was 4am. All I could think to myself was wow $150, and about a 2 hour wait in traffic now. Now maybe about 20 cars ahead of me some impatient bastard decided to u-turn and get out of the tunnel and wait it out in Windsor. OK, I could careless is he u-turned or whatever. But since I had my window down I heard him just step on it, and I mean full throttle. I could hear it echoing in the tunnel and I'm just waiting to see what kind of car is gonna fly by me. Then BOOM this guy side-swipes the Ion in front of me. Bounces. Hits the Cherokee behind me and ends up plowing into an F-150 to end his reign of terror. The lady in the Ion in front of me got out immediately as so did the driver of the Cherokee. Me, I was in awe, wondering if this guy really just missed my car. I get out, take a breathe, and then started looking at my car. Nothing. As much as I wanted to say to everyone else, man that sucks, I just couldn't. The kids excuse that hit everyone was that his wheel "locked" on him, and that he wasn't steppin on it. My ass. I just let it be, the cops took my info and let me go. As for him I could care less, he just made my wait in the tunnel much longer as I had to wait for the border patrol to clear up the accident. I took some pics of my cell phone so their not the greatest but you can get the picture. Mind you my iS has never been in any kind of accident, wow.








    I also have pics of my newly acquired iS lip and M-Tech I lip. I put them on just to take pics but their still white, and I need to get them painted soon.





    And a pic of the snowfall that we had.....poor bimmer :(



    And last pic, this is a pic of my dad's and my new M-Tech II vert. needs some work but you get the idea. I'm still tryin to find some info on these cars but man they are rare. If anybody has a good website or anything that would help please, help.

            Thats pretty balls, but you're lucky he didn't hit your car, if he did you should have reigned a shower of shit kicking on him.

                              Yea the kid was in his early 20's and was just sick of waiting in the tunnel I guess so he turned around. Yea, idiot. That would have really slowed things down if he had hit me since im doin a motor swap. Ill be starting a new thread as soon as the swap starts moving along but ive been collecting parts over the last 3-4 months and all im missing now is just the HID's that i want to get. Heres some teaser pics of what motors goin in, should be pretty obvious to some of you.

                              hint: boost

                              As bad as it looks, the motor is quite new. Its an 81' I believe and its only got 100k on it.
