Crashed my c63

Oh yee i did it and i guess i was prettz good at it. Well this is one experience I will learn from thats for sure. It happened like a week ago on a highway. There was really heavy rain outside nd I just lost control and started watersliding all over the place until I finally fliiped over in a roadside ditch,, wasnt going really fast maybe 70mph.

I can't help but to think that this was a bit extreme to try to justify that new Carbon Fiber hood and maybe a trunk lid.

Again, hope you and no one else was injured!

No one was injured I got out of the car without a single scratch apart from little painy ear due to a helmet hitting my face while I rolled over

You're obviously going to get paid out by the insurance company, but are you going to buy the wreck from them? Can you do that where you live? If yes, what price are they offering? Would be SWEET to drop that motor into something else.

Glad to hear your fine too. Your accident gives me confidence in my safety if I ever had an accident.

Wow, sorry to hear about the bad misfortune. Not sure of the prices for OEMs parts in SLO but let me know if you need some help as pricing here in CZ seem pretty good. Drop me PM if need anything and glad to hear that you are ok.

Glad to hear that you are okay my friend

But I have to ask, about the above bolded statment.

70 mph in the rain isn't really fast

I guess it could be argued that it isn't, but to me it would depend on the rain fall/traffic/road condtions/tires/etc/etc.

Good to hear that you're OK, but from the pics it really goes to show that the C63 is a beast. You wouldn't recognize most cars after flipping over at 70 mph.

Im very sorry. You are lucky you were in a MB or you would had probably gotten hurt. The good part is your okay. Lets hope they total it.

Also 70+ in the rain is not a good idea.

wow that really sucks--glad to see you're okay.
I'm sure that is totaled--there's not a body panel on the car that's not damaged.

What condition were your tires in?
I know these cars go through tires pretty quickly.

Again, it's nice to see you're okay and get to see another day and another car

Driving 70 mph in heavy rain is kinda fast, IMO. Glad you are ok; car can be fixed or replaced.

sorry you went through that experience.. i know how that feels but dude, 70mph in the rain isn't wise though.. you probably hit a puddle and aquaplaned when your tires have been worn out.. actually, i try not to take her out in the wet here cos there's just so much aquaplaning around here in Brunei. i even spun my 97 boxster by hitting a puddle at a T-junction after heavy rain at 50mph which was so bizarre!

glad to hear that you're alright but that smack by the helmet doesn't help..

lol at alrasheed - it doesn't feel good when you flip (especially when you flip hard and end up upside down :P)

The helmet was loose inside your car and hit you?

Glad you're ok. The car can be fixed. Craniums often cannot.

Sorry to hear about your accident. Thank God you are okay and that is what matters at the end of the day.

I hope you get something better or at least the same car as your next vehicle. Be safe and slow down, especially in rain. Our cars are very wild sometimes and if you don't know how to handle them they can be very dangerous.

Take Good Care!
