bummer.

for those of you know me, I havn't been to any meets in years, anyways, in Jan, I bought a 99 Lexus GS400, it was uber mint, 70k km on the odo, one old gentleman owner from new, basically I got lucky with the car, had everything possible done on maintance and was at a good price (thanks to my uncle), anyways, that was my daily driver and so on, and yes, I still got the box, it looks quite different now with the spinners and new pink candy flip paint, PM me for pix if you want.

fast forward to last monday, oct 31st to be exact, woke up in the morning, heading out, and boom, some lady hit me head on on Erin Mills pkwy, it was a nasty hit, her car was completely gone, mine was a wrote off, I can't believe how hard the hit was until I saw her car, and surprise at how well my car hold up, and thanks to stability control I didn't spun out like the lady did. We are both fine, so thank good Lord. And I'm really glad insurance works out well and fast.

Just feel really sad about the car as I sold some of my parts, it was suppose to get lowered and new brakes on that week when it got total'd, and it was an awsome car, I get 600km for $50 of gas, drives so smooth and quiet, sigh, RIP.

click for Lexus' pix.

man. i love the/your GS400. It would be sweet with it a bit lower and nice big brakes :dance:

She hit you head on? . How fast were you/she going?! It sucks that the car is written off. With the insruance money, what are you gonna buy? Gonna get anohter GS or what? You stikin' with the nice luxury cars with power? (Go with a Lincoln LS! I love them. Not suire if they're any good though!)

It sucks to hear about that. Let us know what you get. I can't get the pics to work...

I was going 70km/h, she lost control of her car while swerving away from some crazy *** driver that almost hit her, so about 40-50km/h?

I just picked up a 99 BMW 540I, I like it a lot actually.

I bought a BMW 540i e39 for daily, the Volvo is still my summer and project, but I have a free Escort that I might want to turn into a drag car.
