Ok, gonna make a long story short here...
One of my friends from school got in a car wreck a year ago where the guy involved ran from the scene. They found him, she got tons of settlement money.
She used that money to buy a 2004 GT-S auto (ick!), which she's had for about 2 months now. Anyways, early last week she was over visiting some friends at college and she was driving back on some country roads. The rumor is she might have had something to drink before hand (stupid stupid stupid if true) but in any case, she was going too fast and she took a corner and somehow flipped!?! her Celica. I do not know the whole story yet because of insurance reasons and whatnot but apparently she didn't hit a ditch or curb.. they're saying she hit gravel. Well their story may be full of sh** because I haven't seen the car since but I'm just trying to figure out how the hell she would flip a celica? I know there's a thread regarding flipping cars in a diff section but I thought I'd share my story. She's probably lying for insurance reasons, but I can't see flipping a 7th gen Celica on any type of surface including gravel.
P.S. On a lighter note she as well as her passenger are ok (which is of course my main concern). Also, I'm afraid to ask too early, but I'm sooo tempted to try to get the 2zz out of it for my car for cheap since it's totalled. I think the car only had 1800 miles on it *cries*
