Well its a complicated story. Lets just say i was making a right turn and ended up hitting a parked car. I blacked out and next thing I remember my brother telling me to get out of the car.
Im sure insurance will cover it but I love this car so much. it kills me seeing it like this.

drifting!

who hits parked cars if they hadn't been doing something stupid in the process? Theres gotta be some more to your story, you don't just take a turn and hit a car and get that much damage

YEa interesting how he got quiet when people ask questions. My Guess drifting around a turn and straight up nailed a parked car. Or Maybe Drunk Driving. Who knows. All i know is, you SHOULD feel guilty for doing this to yourself.

Blacked out, medical condition. If he's on insulin this happens.

+1 Drifting though.

Either way that SUCKS.

edit: Next time get a dual din deck.

actually that winshield web from the passenger side happens on most cars due to the passenger airbag itself.

I feel your pain man, I just wrecked my 07 last Thursday. I know it sucks about the car, but just as I was told by someone: "the car can be replaced, your life can not."

Don't think he was drunk cause I don't think the officer would have let him take pictures. I do think he was messing around though. I may be wrong, but the whole "its complicated" thing sounds suspicious. Either way good thing you're ok..Like someone said "Live and Learn" funny thing is that I have the exact car and i also bought it in March

Alright Im sorry I wasnt home all day so I couldnt reply back.
I wasnt drifting or doing anything stupid. There is no skid marks or anything. I was making the turn and the next thing theres smoke in the car with the airbag in my face. I have drifted my car before and handled it. Im not saying like a pro but I do a pretty good job. ive never lost control and this time i didnt even try to drift. It rained in the morning but it was all dried up. No one believes me. Everyone says i drifted but I didnt. My dad came to the crash site and said that i didnt drift because there would be some sign. even the cop said i couldnt have drifted.
The car I hit was a 92' Geo Prizm.
And No im not on drugs or have medical problems or anything. Just bad luck?
