if he is looking for a clean rolling shell, I have a red '87 roller I'd let go cheap! I got ripped off for it (long story) and I just want it out of my sight.

to this day i regret selling that car to steve, but i was glad it was going to a good home. I have some great memories of that car while i owned it. Im glad steve is okay and i know how he feels. time to move on to bigger and better things. R.I.P. Red Robin.

yeah man, the SR20 is by far the ultimate engine. I see what steve's talking about. the owner of that silvia there will one day SR swap an R35 or a ford GT...itll happen. cause the sr20 is the greatest engine known to man

99% sure I know who's car this is and this just confirmed it...

Am i the only one to note that car got hit at 70km/h according to the story and only has that much damage??? wow supras are built well. expected alot more damage then that.

Strange things can happen at higher speeds. That BMW in TO last year (?) that cut that van in half and killed like, 5 people or something? He hit the van at 200+ and his car was virtually fine (damaged, but not what you'd think).

[quadracer111]

Browny, tts true, I know the guy who was hit...

Family is important but so is the vehicle!!! People take a love and passion for their vehicles, as I do for mine. I devote my time and spare money to my car and will continue to do so for the pure love of driving it. Although some people may not think this is a big thing I must completely disagree! Losing a car that has alot of blood, sweat, and tears into and then just gets ripped out of your hands for you to get a small check from insurance to cover your devotion to this car..... Not cool at all! Man I completely hear where your coming from. I hope he moves into a mkiv and gets to enjoy the vehicle as much as his last

Steve said hes probably going to buy a 2000 and some civic si.

Downgrade FTL

[cschepp]

Boooooooooo! That decision sucks monkey nuts! Mkiv time!

[Snake556]

Lame!

[cschepp]

Boooooooooo! That decision sucks monkey nuts! Mkiv time!

Copping out and switching to a civic which 75% of the world owns that sucks. You might find it lame but I don't! Imagine going from a nice rhd supra to a civic, not cool well itleast in my opinion anyways. To each their own though.

Got a call from a shaken very good friend of mine that he has just been involved in an accident and needs me to come down asap, so I hopped in my truck and flew down there, to my eyes, this day, is a day of sadness, my friend lost a vehicle very dear to him. If anyone here knows him besides LordGTR will know that he loved his supra more then anything and it reflected in the due care he gave to his car, there was no expense spared when it came to anything it neeeded.

He went through a green light someone ran a red and hit him on the passenger side front quarter doing 70kmh spun around and car shut off. Hes shooken up and sore but he may be all right. All I can say is I pour out some of my 40 on the floor for my boy. It brings a tear to my eye to see the car in its shape as I know how much it meant to my best buddy and to see it smashed breaks me up.

So if anything can be taken from this is always be aware, Not only do you have to watch your own signals and driving you now have to watch out for other people not paying attention.

My buddy just had that happen to him with his Supra - he's pretty disheartened as well!

He saved for 9 months to buy it, owned it for 2 days, and was smashed into by a guy in a Dodge Charger:
