Can you say...totalled e30???

[Aptyp]

Ok, this is my side of the story as i type it with 1 hand.

I was going straight, and this Accord decided to turn into the gas station with me being like 2 feet away. The damage on my car is not entirely from honda, he hit me in the driver front and i ran off into a truck trying to exit the gas station (Isuzu Rodeo). Fractured thumb is all I got, as my hand bent the steering wheel.

Funny events: yesterday i got hit by an oak, in the knee, Today i totaled my baby. The guy tried to get out of ticket by saying, "I thought he was goinna slow down' as i was going straight. And then he tried to convince me that since we both had liability insurance, I shouldn't call it in. It's called in, they're paying for it.

WTB: 88-89 325iS, i have a set of plastic bumpers (it was next mod anyway)

Ellipsoids are not for sale, but i doubt anyone would want them anyway, lenses unglued from impact.

So yeah, i need another e30 fast. I am not driving a ranger at $4 per gallon.

HA! I would have loved to hear that conservation! What an ass-hat.

looks momo maybe sparco

[apexede30]

I have no idea. You'll probably get an answer tomorrow when the big guy responsible for gripping it so hard it bent wakes up. I do know that he actually bent the aluminum center on that wheel, and the adaptor hub thingy is momo.

[gearheadE30]

That's crazy! I suppose there is a good reason for the airbag wheels...

[Aptyp]

the steering wheel is not super high quality like momo, but it wasn't a POS. Considering i am a big boy, that's actually not too bad. if the steering didn't bend in, i'd probably be typing with one arm, as my elbow and shoulder would also be messed up. Hub is MOMO though, so for the next steering wheel I may cough up another $100 and by a steering wheel by momo too. insurance company will pay for it.

Changing my WTB, since I have an I engine. I wouldn't mind buying eS or iS, as long as it's pre-airbag model.
