RE: The Wreck...
i dont know where my pic was but my first audi i owned was the m3 colored 98 1.8t and i didnt have it but a month...didnt even get to change the oil in her
and i hit a 80 degree turn going 80 and didnt break and slammed right smack dead center of the car into a telephone pole and completely snapped the pole in half and moved it a foot through the asphault and all this happened at 3 am while a gas tanker was refueling the station bc the pole was right in front of the gas station. thank god i hit that instead. after that happened i really fell in love with my car bc it saved my life and i bought a new one. i just ended up breakin my collar bone from the seatbelt.....oh did i mention i was runing from the cops
just thought id see if i could that night bc i always thought about it but never again. like tom i have learned my lesson and one up 2 u DD out there. we need more people like u out there

Yeah, here's a tip for those people who drive somewhere, then get drunk: get a roadside assistance provider.
I am free to call mine 5 times a year, for a tow (I have 250km of towing--about 150miles)
So, I can call them up, drunk out of my mind, and as long as i can slur the sentence "uhh, yeeaar... i thinks its my transmission... its broken" they'll send me a truck! So I, and a couple friends even, get a ride home, and my car delivered to my doorstep! SWEEET!
It was my towtruck driver that gave me the idea, and also told me, no matter what you've done to your car, tell them you think its your tranny. I hit a curb on black ice, and needed a tow truck... this is when the SAME tow truck driver came to my call, and was like, dude, you shoulda said it was your tranny. (because roadside doesnt cover accidents)
But yeah, I despise people who drink and drive.

RE: The Wreck...
I T-boned a freakin 3 ton paneled utility truck after he decided to swerve into my lane (I had a green light) to avoid a Durango full of small kids... sigh.
Only had the wheels on for 3 weeks, the suspension on for a month, new 1 piece headlights on for 5 days... what a pita that month was. I was sorry to see her go, but she had 114K miles, so it was time I guess. At least then I could get the avant I wanted.
The fogs were aftermarket that I installed myself. I really liked em. Can't remember where I got em. But I think they were Hella lights.

Haha, Tom, you best be slurring the fact that your car sits about 1" off the ground... you're car would be a tow trucks nightmare. AWD, no clearance. So remind them for a flatbed, haha, best way to tow anyways. I'd tip the tow truck driver as well, he is afterall, helping you scam the world.
Everybody should do it though, roadside is cheap, and it pays for itself if you use it as a drunk taxi THAT BRINGS YOUR CAR HOME TOO.
