Well I came here looking for advice on a GXP that I ended up buying, it's been over a year since I wrecked that car and I was just daydreaming about it today. So I thought I would post up some pictures. It's funny the pictures of it smashed up don't bug me at all but when I see a pic of it normal it makes me sick to my stomach.

Wow I remember that...

I used to let my Dad take my Bonneville back in the day.... He once asked me what I would do if something happened and he totaled my car.... I told him I'd ask him if he was ok..

Its a shame to see those Pics... I do remember when you posted those.... But I have to say someone walked away from that accident, The car sure did its job.. Sad to see it destroyed, but glad to have you here as a member today and the family if they were in the car...

Man it was such a pretty car too

If that impact would have been 2 ft back, I'm not sure that you would have walked away...

Your right, If that would have been any further back It probably would have broke my leg. I hit a concrete telephone pole. I can't say how fast I was going but I luckily walked away unhramed.

Ouch, that hurts. I missed the original post of the accident. What happened?

If you still can find the car at the yard, I'll buy the tail lights. :lol:

Probably those stupid ass Eagle RS-As. Might have been able to recover without an accident if you'd had better tires.

sure is a shame though, beautiful car.

That is a shame, she was a sweet looking car. Even totaled it is still better looking than mine :wink:
