So whats the worse thing that has ever happened to either the car or your self while in a car?

and no getting pulled over is not valid ;):)

feel free to elaborate to! explain the wreck whatever :D

EDIT: mines pretty boring. - pulling off the highway at over 70mph. a semi sitting on the shoulder decided to move into the lane I was in with no warning and a heavy load so took him time to get up to speed. so hit the brakes. guy behind me locked up his Mazda and bumped the rear end of the rental MAlibu and then spun out into oncoming traffic and hit a oncoming Taurus and explorer(amazing how fast traffic can stop). trucker never even stopped but we messed the malibu up decnetly :p

Someone ran into the back of my car doing ~30 while I was at a dead stop.

That stung a bit.

got in a skid which turned into a 180, nearly hit an old man in a mini cooper and nearly ran over three drunk girls on the sidewalk. thankfully no campus cops around to hear the LOUD skid noises. i learnt not to take a 20-30mph turn at 70.

edit: curve, not turn

I had a old 1983 Honda accord.

Well it had a sunroof that leaked. Well one night i was on a date and well it was getting hot and heavy. Well she was sitting on mylap when it started to rain really hard and it started leaking on her =( needless to say there was no love for me that night.

About 4 years ago i had a ford escort. Well it was my wife's birthday so we went to a bar called Cadillac ranch in IL there was 5 of us, me, my wife, 2 buddies and my sister in law.. We had a lot to drink. well i had to take a piss so i stooped and got out and did my duty. Well while i was taking a piss one of my Friends in the back seat barfed all over then inside of my car! luckily he missed the other 2 people in the back. but man my car stunk for weeks! I ended up trading it in about 2 months after this.

Me too, but he was going even faster than that. Jeez, was I sore the next day. I evidently tensed my arms and legs up enough to pull/tear muscles and also got whiplash. :|

Spun a brand new full size Ford passsnger van 180* and slid sideways into a peach orchard flattening 5 or 6 young trees. Wheels were dug into the mud up to the hubs. I only dented a running board, and miraculously didn't roll it. I'll never get that lucky again.

Checked my speedo and realized it was well past the highest markings on a relatively crowded highway . . I wasn't weaving through traffic but I was definatly the fastest car out there.


Its not so bad, though, seeing as my speedo only goes to 85. Its kinda fun to be able to see it past the end, which I couldn't do if it went to 120 or 160 or whatever they like to put them to these days.

Or that time I slide sideways through a stopsign . . . but again its not so bad cause I was going less that 10 mph and it was iced.

Yeah, I have a feeling the guy who hit me was doing 40 or 45 maybe. My car was totalled. I guess you could look at me and my passengers as having been lucky; since we didn't hear squealing brakes or anything beforehand, we didn't have time to tense up, which would have made it worse. A few of us had some neck pain for a few days after, but that's it.

My friend had a 98 Ford Taurus in which he was going 50 in a 15 zone (a S curve) IN THE RAIN (on high school lunch!). Well, he started sliding down VERY fast, and I saw a tree. We hit the tree. THEN THE FVCKING MORON HITS THE GAS and we cross a five lane road, and the only thing that stops us is a cement block in a guy's garage!!!! The guy who owned the house owns an autobody shop:)
Now, when I am a passenger and someone is taking a turn I get very nervous:(

Naah. Mine is a 2003 and it's smooth as silk up to 95..thats where it's computer limited (and rightfully so). It gets there very quick and without effort too. Very little wind noise. I keep it slow though, since it's not a quick stopper and gets bad gas mileage if you don't baby it. Mine is a Chateau lowtop 7 passenger.
