Damn that is crazy, but definitely not a simple bump or back up type of accident. Looks like you got t-boned hardcore! I feel bad for your grille on the ground like that!!!

Hope this is somehow a joke

I agree with checking the logs at the range, it should be easy to narrow it down, just look for the guy driving the Sherman Tank !!

Ok, ok. I thought it would be entertaining to see the responses of such damage and saying it got backed into. Turns out, I just feel bad tricking everybody. Was going to play it till tomorrow but I will come clean now.

I sold this car last fall and a guy at work told me that he saw it at the Collision center so I went and took some pics. Had to go back again to take more because my first ones were blurry from me shaking because I was so upset at seeing my old pride and joy in such shambles. : (

I agree with you guys who say that it is totaled. Looks like it jumped a crurb and went partially through a chain link fence due to the rim being dented in and the scratches that go up the hood. The drivers side front and rear side curtain airbags all went off, there are dents in the roof which look to be from massive body tweak. No scrarches on the roof so it didn't look like it rolled. Looks like they used their head to put a nice smashing in the windshield too.

I will put up some more pics tomorrow when I have access to my computer. Anyways, another one bites the dust. : (

Dude, how old are you? 16? It must be nice to get amused so easily! And honestly, you didn't really think you were fooling anyone, did you?

Old enough to not say dude. If you were to read, you would see that I said I really didn't find it entertaining. And no, I didn't think I would fool anyone. Thus the amount of damage and saying it was backed into.

Forget it.....

sucks to see something you put so much time and money in to get trashed. I sold a 04 ZX10r that made 191 rwhp 2 years ago and within 3 weeks of selling it I found it bent in half on craigs list. I feel your pain man......

Wow that's some massive damage. I wonder how the driver fared after hitting the windshield with his/her head like that? Hopefully well. Also, I wonder why someone's head would hit the windshield like that, if they're wearing their seat belt?

After reading the thread thru its entiirety, man, you had me going. Looking at these photos, I really thought someone had hit you. As this isn't a simple hit and run, it looks like they vandalized your car to me. From the bent on the roof, and the fractured windshield. But it was all and act. You should have come clean right from the start. ;(

Sorry to hear about your bike. It is a sad feeling indeed.

If you want to quote me, finish the job. 30 btw, since you won't stop asking.

Oh yeah! All shined up and everything. Glad yours is still in tip top shape. Sure is a beauty.

Yeah, I gather that there was no seatbelt action going on. Strange that the steering wheel airbag didn't go off, just the side curtains. Could be that something else damaged the windshield but the positioning of it looks pretty convincing that it was their head.

Haha, I wish. I could get my cf spoiler, diffuser, aluminum pedals, and ASP 180mm pulley too. Should have parted out before I sold it. Now the parts will just go to the dump.

If it heads to a pick and pull yard you could get them back no problem.

I'll have to keep my spies on it and talk to somebody at the body shop. Good call.

If that was his head, he has severe brain trauma and is a vegetable right now or dead.
