My then-significant other once fell asleep at the wheel of my car, and rammed into a boat trailer while going 85 on the freeway on the way to vacation. The engine of the boat crashed through the window where I would have been seated, had I not been in the back seat asleep. Which is good because although the driver's side airbag inflated, the passenger's side one didn't. The car was totaled.
I thought I was the only one. I'd love to have an R34. Though I'd like to have an RX-7, the FD. Would be much fun. Not to mention something like a GTO or a Charger, or a Mustang GT-500, or ... ok I'll stop talking about cars now. lol.
Not sure who you were directing that comment at Milkshake, but I don't drink and drive, heh ...
I was going 25 mph at the time , in heavy rain, so be aware out there people, you do not need to be going overly 'fast' to lose control. I find that is a misconception a lot of people tend to have. (Though obviously driving faster increases your chances).
...and in answer to your question Omnae, the insurance did. ;)
Seth has it right. You don't need to be speeding to lose control. It'd just started raining as it was.
When I get the funds, I'm going to have it fixed up. I have plans on turning it into a sleeper, and I want to get it repainted to a dark turquoise bluish color.
