Some dip **** decided to turn right in front of me while it was raining....
I think the GS won the fight though. I am a real life test dummy, these things are damn safe, for being a 98.


you should see the other guy...



everyone involved is okay, fortunately. The guy in the camaro's insurance is going to hate me though...

Did the Camaro have a passenger? That looks horrible.

Nothing is worst than loosing your pride and joy because of someone else... Once your insurance claim is settled it'll be like leaving a girl that you didn't really want too... but then you get to upgrade =) Newer 2GS?

actually, I was lookin into a silver GS, kped, wanna sell?? ha.

I was heading south on the inside lane, he was heading north trying to turn into a neighborhood to the west. He drifted directly in front of us. No passenger in his car, fortunately, he would have been a goner. I will find out more on this mess thursday.

Btw, I bought brand new nitto invo tires for my 19's, EBC LS brake rotors/pads for the front and GS EBC rotors/pads as well as the stainless lines all around. I have the LS400 calipers, the sage RUCA's front and rear as well as a few other items that were purchased and have yet to be put on the car, was about to brakes next week

Oh man, some people are just in such a rush. Just waiting an extra second could have prevented this accident.

I'm really glad to hear you're okay.

That's a scary looking accident. If you are looking for another GS you should Buy This.
