The car wouldn't stop any more, so it was either hit a bunch of BMW's on the right side, some VW's to the left, or...

I survived, but the car did not. Suffice it to say, I made it to my last final exam ever on time. One of the art professors (I coincidentally crashed it in the Fine Arts parking lot) suggested we use it as an art project (jokingly). One of the facilities guys bought it, and used it for parts.

When I got home, one of my roommates found a full brake pad on our driveway...

AW man, should have done the world a favor and taken out those bimmers and vdubs.

Lame, hope the shop was held liable, tough to prove.

I wasn't the only one with the problem. They were sued by this woman who owned a Jag--they couldn't pay her back so they shut down.

For ****s and giggles, I left it in that parking lot for a week. People wrote condolence messages.

Even though I don't personally own a W124 (yet), my old man has the wagon, and I plan on gettin one once I finish the 240D project (loooong project, candy paint almost done). But heres me (stupid senior pic, only one I have on this comp) Other than this one, but I didn't want that to be the only way I'm represented (no I'm not actually high, just alway look it in pics)
And one of MY car, not the wagon (being sold)
