What a SAD day
I was driving on left lane and the other car all of sudden turn her blinker on and just made 90 degree turn, I did not have time to react and hit the brake so I just slammed into her.

It was great meeting you guys yesterday. We'll have to meet up in Austin.

I saw SLEPER's car yesterday. Absolute beauty. I've got the conversion sitting in my office. So congrats on the opportunity to upgrade your car for free?

you to Hate
Hate to hear and see stuff like that. Drivers down south never look where they are going. They just hit their blinker and turn. I've been run off the road a bunch of times to avoid being hit.

Like every one else said, 63 front end.

YES!!! She just turn her blinker and turned, I didn't have time to react and hit the brake. She still told the cop I was speeding and hit her???!!! OMG!!!
Couple minutes later she got citation from the cop and she was crying over it.

Hopefully this will work out with the body shop getting 63 conversion.

Always a sad sight to see a damaged AMG. The damage doesn't look too bad though (how banged up was her car?) As long as, it appears, no one was hurt that's what truly matters...When you can walk away from stuff like this and just exchange paper work. No matter how good of a driver you can be, you can never control other driver's skills, or lack of.. Luckily, parts like this can always be replaced (and upgraded )
