Default My R and my brother's new S -warning... dirty R pic-

Here's my bro's new Type S... just got it last night. He totaled his brand new WRX and I suggested he get the RSX Type S. So there are plans for a JRSC and some other stuff. He likes it more than the Subaru. Must be that he liked mine so much that he had to get something similar.... I'm suggesting a PY paint job with an "A" spec wing.

couple of sweet rides ----->

My brother states the following....


"Yep, that was my car, and I ain't happy

was on a two lane road, and I went to pass some lady, and as I was passing, she came about 3 feet over onto my side of the road. I tried to move left to avoid hitting her, and ran off the road, into a ditch, back up on the road and ended up rolling back into the ditch, and hit about 4 or 5 trees.

Of course when the cops showed up, she claimed she never came into my lane. She even told the cop that I came flying past her out of nowhere. But I was following her for about a minute waiting for a passing lane. She even drifted over the lane as I was following her. The passing lane opened up, and I waited a little bit to see if she would go over the line again, but as soon as I went to go around her is when she ran me off the road. damn lying *****. she even changed her story a couple of times. first she told the officer she was doing 35 mph, then she said she was already doing 55 when "I came flying past her"


I think I broke the driver window out with my head, so I'm pretty sore right now. But the ambulance crew was surpised I was walking around with no injuries. The lady that took my pulse was even more surpised that my blood pressure after the accident was lower than what she normaly has. Which surpised me, because I was seeing red. That lady didn't get her face introduced to the pavement only because some off-duty firefighters showed up just as I was getting out of my car, who then called the police.

I actualy sat in my car for a good minute after I came to a stop because I was just so incredibly pissed. as a matter of fact I was pissed off the second I came out of the ditch and lost control. I remember thinking just how pissed I was as I watched the trees coming up to meet me. as I was bouncing around in my car getting sprayed with glass, dirt, and thorn vines I was thinking about how mad I was that she ran me off the road. When I got out looked at her and calmly asked why she felt it necissary to come into my lane and she told me "nah-uh, I din' come ova in yo lane, I din' come ova, itz was all yo fault" I was just on my way over to her location to provide her an education in both the english language and the diffrence between the two sides of the line when the firemen showed up.

I had 7000 miles on that car. Just filled the tank, and had about maybe 50 miles on a nice new change of mobile 1 synthetic oil. Not to mention I spent about 3 hours installing a subwoofer in the trunk not two weeks prior.

any idea on salvage value? have no idea on the engine condition, but I know I didn't lose any fluids."

Now there's an idea.

Do a hybrid turbo boxer with AWD in an R.

H'mmm, ahh just think of the possibilities.

The police officer faulted neither. The salvage value according to All State is aroung 5K. Much too high IMO. The engine looked mostly intact and it's sitting in Virginia Beach if anyone is interested.

I've heard about your R....via Francisco. We should have a 757 meet up. Had mine out scooting around town today. Went out to the beach and back... Hit me on the IM and perhaps we can get together.

At least hes ok. And he got a sweet car from the looks of it. Both cars look great and pretty clean if you ask me. My R looks like a science fair project on the front there are so many dead bugs. haha

Yes, the minivan is a pimp ride. The wife likes it. Has 125K+ miles already and is hanging in there. Too expensive to buy new, so I just keep fixing this one. Oh well. The leather seats are comfy and it rides nice. I can white smoke the tires when the traction control is off. I will be slapping a Type R badge on it (99 Olds Minivan) shortly.... because everything is better if it says "R".
