I feel sorry for this guy....
Ok... I was in the mall getting some new clothes, and went to try them on. The fitting room attendant was telling another worker about what happened to his car over the weekend. When I came out, I asked him what had happened. The car was an Integra GS-R, but not just any GS-R. He put over $9000 into just the engine alone... Turbo, new pistons, cams, the works.... "Everything but NOS" is the way he put it. It was a sweet car (he showed me the picture). He let his buddy borrow the car for a hot date, and well, he wasn't sure what happened, but somehow whoever was driving went to make a turn, and was probably going too fast. The car went out of control and flipped. So needless to say, his baby got totaled. And obviously, insurance isn't going to pay for all that modding. So he's out over $12000 that he'll probably have to sue his best friend for to get it back. I really feel sorry for this guy, but I guess you learn... Don't let anyone else drive your car.

Rep Power: 420 Hmm... Good point. I would be so so sad if something happened to my baby. I think I won't be letting anyone borrow my car anymore. Maybe I'll let them drive it, but I'de have to be in the car with them. Yep yep. That sucks. Sorry to hear that. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 Aww man yeah if his friend was actually a good friend to him. He wouldn't have asked him to borrow the car in the first place if he knew it was modded up like that. I wouldn't let my friend borrow a modded up car like that unless i was there to supervise his driving

Rep Power: 0 What sucks is the firend isn't insured for his car. I let my friend drive my car once and the dumbass took it to the "redline" right as he passed me, what a moron. needless to say he won't be driving it again.

Rep Power: 0 ouch!, that's gotta suck. but what a dumba$s though. i mean, if i was in my friends car and i obviously knew it had over 10Gs invested in it, for starters, i would'nt have asked to borrow it, but for some reason i did borrow it, it would be so so careful... driving under the limit lik a grand mother and ish.
but hey, accidents happen.... life goes on

Rep Power: 0 I learned my lesson bout letting friends drive my car. One friend returned my old car to me with the passenger side door completly dented in. Then my ex bestfriend took my civic to work and hit a curb so hard that it dented the rim and busted the spring. Then she tried to deny it and told me I must have done it. Like I wouldn't know if I hit a curb. If I do let someone drive now, I have to be in there with them.
