So earlier tonight at a little past 7PM on February 3, 2007 on my way to my cousin's wedding dinner with my gf and bro, I became a Celica sandwich on 45 South. Traffic came to a stop on the highway, so the Evo 8 in front of me came to a stop and I came to a stop, but guess what? The ***** in the Solara behind me didn't!! So after exchanging information, we hung around and waited for the cops to show up. She seemed to give out her insurance info pretty easily like she has just accomplished a goal that's she's set for a long time. In the mean time, my brother was taken off to the hospital to be checked on and so did one of the passengers from the Evo. While waiting, the ***** had the f****n' nerve to come up to me and ask, "So what're we waiting for and who are you guys calling?"

Anyways, onto pics.


























There you go. pictures explain themselves. the dude in the Green Bay Packers jacket is my brother-in-law and former owner of the Celica. All in all, my car's being towed to an open lot; The lady's going to jail due to a suspended liscence, and I just spent 5 hours at the hospital waiting for my brother to be discharged. I hope my gf's gonna be fine in the morning. I know I'm gonna be sore as f**k in the morning.

Anyways, I think I'll be buying the car back from insurance and will be parting it out along with possible my GT-4 conversion. If anyone needs anything from the interior, let me know. I seriously have a MINT interior. Driver's seat shows no wear at all.

After all this, I don't know if I want to pick up another Celica, or maybe go after the Mk3 Supra that I've always wanted. If I do pick up another Celica, it'll probably have to be an All-trac or another 6gc for sure. I really loved this car and it saddens me to see it in this state and to possibly let it go.

I think that's it for the night. I'll post more later on when I get some info. I need to call her insurance company in hopes that they can set me up with a rental car so I can go to school and work.

Farewell, T-Spoon. You shall be missed by all those that loved and adored you. RIP (2/3/07)

dude that really sucks!!!!
still gonna try to make it to the meet?
and i dont wanta sound bad, but are you selling the rims?

>

yeah, i'm gonna try and make it to the meet. I'll hitch a ride with someone unless I can pick up another car by then.

as for the rims; yeah. I think I'ma sell'em. they're wrapped with 205/50-16 Hankook Ventus V4 ES tires. They're pretty new with ~3000 miles on'em. I got'em back in early December of '06.

why is it always the celica that gets the damaged...
from the pics
it looks like the other 2 cars got like no damage at all...

>


Because Celicas are beautiful. Only the beautiful ones get hurt. That's the sadness of this world.
^^^^^Sounds like some kind of quote^^^^^

damn that sucks. i'm glad that driver went to jail. and it looks like the evo barely got a scratch. sorry about the celi. hope you and your bro and gf feel better. get another 6gc and do the gt-four conversion.

Hey, sorry about what happen to you. Hope everything is alright with you and the others that were with you. I've also sent you a pm on interior parts that you might be parting out.

PMs replied to.

As of 2AM central division time, both insurance companies have been notified of the accident. I don't want her to call into her company before me to make up some BS story to get out of it, but I don't think she really can when she's spending the night in jail...

sorry to hear that... though you should buy a hatchback and put that gt4 conversion on... that'd be sweet.

but anyways, goodluck with the insurance claim and i hope you get back what you deserve. take care..

Oh man I'm so sorry

what a dumb *** they suspend your license for REASONS... gawd.

I hate crumple zones, it's the car who hits you that should crumple and burst into flames!!! : / ... ok j/k on the last part but that totally just sucks.

Good luck!

wow man so sorry to hear that... Just last friday something like that happen to me. A truck in front of me went on a complete stop to bust a you turn and the ford focus hit me and had me slide maybe 2 ft ahead. The truck freaked out and sped as fast as he can. The focus and I went to check it out but nothing happen to my rear end, wierd. But the Focus front was jacked up. So I was the one lucky. Didnt do anything cause nothing happen to me, except my neck was hurtin a lil. But i hope you get the Supra you want. They are the sekc.

Btw: I felt like my Celica was over... almost cried. Good luck

sorry dude, i liked the way that car looked with the ford blue and the rims

i know exactly how you feel bro. been through that situation. it sucks but after ya stop driving the celi.. you'll know how much ya miss it. the evo seems alrite, nothing major. this calls for a law suit.. sue the ass out of the woman in the solara.

Poor T-spoon I hate to see any celica like that.
Its been bad luck for celis the last couple of weeks.
I wouldn't part it out. You may not realize it but you
are in a perfect position for a GT4 conversion.(rear clip)

When you got sandwiched, were you able to sue the other driver? If you did, how did you go about doing it?

that's gonna be a lot of work and $$ (which I don't have) to convert the rear of a coupe.

so appearantly my gf cussed that lady out while I was on the phone. went something like this:


"HIS CAR IS ****ED!! WHATS IT LOOK LIKE?!"

Lady: Oh, so you guys aren't hurt, just pissed?

"ARE U ****ING KIDDING ME?!"

sorry about your car man ...did the air bags hit ya?
*are you selling your rear view mirror

>

^ omg if i was that freaking dumb, I'd sterilize myself. Oh my GOODNESS! :X
seriously good luck with everything! I hope you find that supra

>

and the vultures have smelled the fresh meat...

No kidding. lol. I've gotten PMs from 4 different people already about parts.

as for the airbags, they didn't deploy, so i don't know if that was a good thing or a bad thing.

I hope i get enough to pick up this All-trac that's on the other side of town.

>
That's funny, man.

well i didn't sue cause if i start claiming the lexus infront of me would claim from me lol

looks like when i got into an accident, the EVO at the front of the pack slammed on its brembo brakes to not run a red, then everyone else slammed theres, i saw the tail lights of the mazda 3 infront of me light up, i slammed my brakes....and had JUST stopped (suspension hadnt settled yet thankgod) when i hear SCREEECH WHAM! the 2000 V6 eclipse behind me went right under my car about 2 feet, ****ing his hood and busting the top off his radiator and pushing me into the 3 a little bit.


no one was hurt, but my GF got a little bruise across her shoulder from the seatbelt and the force of me stoping. i had myself pressed hard back against the seat, head planted to the headrest.

to those asking for parts, i have no idea about what prices i'm setting yet, so don't bother about that. just ask if anyone's gotten dibs on it yet. once everything settles with insurance, I will start listing prices.

Mine got rear ened 2 weeks ago now. Still waiting on insurance to get back to me. Mine faired a lot better but had it gone I would be tore up. Naturaly I had just gotten sportline and now have to wait until the frame and all is checked.

Wow man I'm sorry about your car? How's everyone feeling? That ***** sucks man.. hope you get tons of $$ from her! Go for the the supra

Damn. I'm so sorry. I felt so bad for you when I got your text the other night. That car was the only 6th Gen in town that ever gave my car a descent run. Hope you get the Al-trac but MKIII Supra T would be sweet as well. Just go for the Turbo car this time. Much cheaper in the long run than what we had planned.
I'm not gonna vulture you for parts. You know what I need if you decide to sell. Man - Am I the only tuner GT in town now? That sucks bad.

oh my fcking god... I hope your all alright. Hopfully it didn't get a salvaged title. Solara Didn't even get a dent.. Guy in the Evo look slike he just got a few scratches. I would of gone ape **** on that girl. You Texted me saying my celicas gone check 6gc I though you hit someone. Scaring the **** outta me the way you drive. Sorry to hear that alex. Call me up if you need anything bro.

Legend Contiunes. Celicas are Crash Magnets..
