Sup People?

I don't know if any of you remember, but when i first joined I had said that the reason I bought the accord was because I was hit by a drunk driver on the 110 S in Los Angeles while in my 2008 Audi. It's been a while, but I figure I'd go ahead and upload the pics... These bring back some bad memories, and as you can see, this was no fender bender. Me and my better half were lucky to walk away. I can still remember going to the tow lot and having all the guys just stare at me while I came to retrieve my personal effects from the wreckage. "You walked away from that bro??" was the one question they asked while they peered at me through the clerk's window as if they had seen a ghost.

One thing I can say, is that the interior held up flawlessly. I don't have any interior pics, but the structure wasn't compromised at all, despite being pinned against a concrete wall at about 65 mph. I'd say that the car did it's job, as I'm still here to post this up for you guys to see. I'd definitely recommend an Audi to anyone getting into the luxury car market, if for nothing else, but their saftey which I can say from experience, is top quality...

I present to you... the Faithful Departed...

Damn dude! That's very good accident safety, if it was slammage between concrete wall at 65mph.. Rear end looks worse than front. Glad you were okay, and it sucks losing such a nice car.

Well I also did my best to downshift and steer out of a straight on collision with the wall. As u can see, we hit the wall at angle rather than square, which I think mitigated at least some of the damage. But considering the impact I'm still amazed at how well she held up...
