It happened a week ago. Driving down a twisty road, this VW Bora (jetta in US) was behind me, he was driving to fast for wet conditions, and at a tight right hander, he brakes late and over takes me on the inside, me minding my own business, carry on in the outer trajectory... at the near exit of this corner, I was still ahead of him abit, he somehow manages to lose control, slides, clips my side rear and weee off we go. I do a 180 degree turn and WHAM on to the concrete railing. Side airbags deploy... Luckily no injuries but my car is soooooooo broken. Cops come, fill out papers, tow truck and at the dealer I asked them "damage?", they said "very bad". bodywork isn't damaged but the right side suspensions, brakes, driveshaft is dead meat. The car was declared total loss. The Insurance guy will go there and assess the damage asap.

So basically I've been carless for a week now, so pissed off. Many sleepless nights. I was considering getting other cars ie WRX, S2000 or IS200, but yesterday I decided that I loved my celica too much I am going to get another one. I will take the opportunity to upgrade to TS. gawd life sucks... Oh well I at least I will get the best of it, hopefully...

Damn celica racing, bad to hear you lossed the car. Glad to hear that you are Okay.............

Don't even think about getting another car then a T sport. It was nice to have you in our club and we want you to stay in the club. Also, you need a T sport for the meeting in Denmark :D

So, I guess I made the last picture of your car beeing alive at the meeting in May.............. May she rest in peace (or is it pieces) :D

Glad you're ok, and no one was seriously hurt. Now you get to own a 2ZZ-ge equiped Celica, bet your're going to love the sensation of lift on the new ride.

Celica's are dropping like fly's lately. Good to see that most of us are keeping it. I followed the same route you did Celica GTE... keeping the Celica... it will always have a place in my heart ::sniff sniff::
