Wrecked C230

Well, until today there were 2 New C230 coupes in my town(that I know of). Now theres only 1. Mine. This chick in the other C230 saw me and winked, when i tried to catch up to her she tried to play "cath-me-if-you-can" I didnt buy into it. The speed limit was 45 so i was doing about 50MPH and she had to have been doing at least 60, she tried to cut in between a Accord and an Excursion and the front of the Excursion(passenger side) and the back drivers side of the c230 hit. The Ford didnt move at all, the c230 got sideways and went down a embankment and turned over. I immediatly stoped and called Tele-aid (only took them 4 seconds to answer) and told them about the wreck and they said they would have GEMS, and Police, and fire en route. Cops showed up 4 minutes latter and she was ok. The car did just like it should have done. All the airbags deployed, and seatbelts worked too. The outside of the car was very bad, but inside wasnt bad at all. She had some scrapes and cuts from the glass, but she climbed out of the car and was ok. Sorry guys i didnt have the heart to start snapping pics of it. But I did get her number

Glad to know the coupes and tele-aid are up to par.

Timmy, did you tell her about MBworld.org? We need some more gals on this site, and we could console her. We'd also need to get to the bottom of the "but I did get her number" story. LOL

Timmy, did you ever think that maybe she purposely crashed just so she could get your number?

if she did that I wouldnt want to date her. I think she was just trying to show-off and got in a little too deep.

Would she be dating you for your own self or for your car?!? I mean, will she leave you the minute a replacement C-Coupe comes into her world? How can you ever be sure...? :p
