what a weekend....

Okay so here's the story, my girlfriend and i live together and she doesn't have a car, so i decided that she needed one, i found a car on craigslist up in Seattle that i wanted to go get. So i take out a loan, and tell her that which ever car is nicer the one im going to buy or the one i already own, i will let her driver the nicer one because well i don't care. So last Saturday i make my way up to Seattle with a friend and stay at another friends place up there. Sunday morning come along we all wake up and decide to go get some breakfast, its like 10:30 and i am supposed to go get the car at 4:00. i get a call from my girlfriend and she is all hysterical and crying, she then proceeds to tell me that she wrecked my car.... first thing that came to mind was if she was ok, and she was and then i asked if she had hit anyone and she didn't, ok so things are alright. except for the fact that i am in Seattle and she is here in Vancouver, and she wrecked my car. but the cops showed up and it was towed out of there. she ended up putting it in a ditch
, i guess it had just stopped raining after all this hot weather the roads were pretty slick and she fishtailed and there you have it. So basically she wrecked my car while i was up in Seattle buying her a car. I am still waiting for the ******* at the insurance company to get back to me about it to see if it is totaled. If it is totaled i just hope they give me back my wheels.
.


























And the new car, ive got new front and rear pads and rotors, and tie rod ends. i am also going to be getting new fenders and a bumper because they aren't in great shape

Doesn't look to bad actually. If they total it for some reason, buy it back and you got spare parts...lol Any way sorry and congrats all in the same sentence.

The car really doesn't look that bad. I take it you have a thing for 240SX's huh?? If they do total it...you should take over ownership of the new one

haha i own both of them, yeah im almost positive they are going to total it, they aren't worth much, so i will buy it back and sell the crap outta it. and i do enjoy my self a 240 or two, they are cheap and get pretty good gas mileage and i can't afford anything with any real power so...

Nobody drives my car except my husband and my father. And my husband knows if he wrecks it, don't bother to come home.

I think up here if your car gets written off if you have the old wheels you can give the them those and take the aftermarkets.
