          With my wagon sold I've been driving the e30 more regularly again. The m20 is such a smooth and eager powerplant. I know this is old news, but my love for these cars is always renewed.

You gotta be careful not to leave your senses back there because you really need them. You move your body too much and you could initiate a turn. 90% of people aren't expecting you to be there. Everything above a gentle speed can kill you, and that's what makes it so fun. You make it a point to say, I'm not going to die today.

          I'm young and dumb and don't own a bike, so what do I know.
          What did you ride? A decent bike completely alters your concept of what acceleration is. My SV650 still makes me grit my teeth in first and second gear pulls. Don't even start me on my fear of wheelies HA. Then again I'm still pretty new to the bike game. Just hit one year of riding almost everyday.

                  I think it was a early 2000's Ninja, not the 250, a bigger one. The experience was years ago so I don't remember everything.

                        As most of you guys know, I get up very early to start work.
                        This morning I got an early text (3 a.m.) from 1 of my friends and it reads,
                        *Don't take the 405 S., car wreck by Venice exit.*
                        I said thank you but, since my buddy is an e30 enthusiast, he immediately says
                        *It was a vert e30, totalled* I'm caging my e30.
                        I laughed and went on about my morning.
                        Noon comes around and, I had to visit 1 of my customers with a tow yard.
                        Low and behold, guess what I see whilst trying to find parking, inside the lot?
                        Call up my friend and he confirmed, that it was the same car as the one he saw early morning.

                        I pray the occupants are alright health wise.


                        So my question to you is;
                        Do you know him/her?
                        Are they ok?
                        How did this happen?
                        Driver error or vehicle malfunction?

                                Engine sat where the transmission tunnel is, demolished oil pan, shattered transmission housing and internals and broken to bits driveshaft. The differential was completely missing, rear tires were bald and that whole frame buckled.
