I dont post much here, but I just wanted to update a few of you on what happened.

On November 22nd, 2011, I was heading to work in the morning. At around 650AM, a van from the curb lane sideswiped me traveling into my left lane. I went over the median, and ended up in the oncoming traffic lane. Luckily for me, not myself or any other drivers were hurt. A few days later, the car was assessed for damage and officially written off. The damage consisted of the door, fender, hood, bumper, lip, headlight, steering assembly, suspension, and internal engine bay damage.

Here is a video of the car taken 3 days before the accident:

I made a video timeline to show the build and different looks it went under:

Here are some pics ill cherish the most:

 

I used to see this car all the time on 176 , looked killer

 

I'm sorry to hear about the news

 

sad to hear this. But I hope that you weren't seriously injured from this accident.

On another note, that second picture is awesome!

 

sorry to hear about your accident, hope you are ok. what's your next car going to be, and any plans for mods?

 

On the bright side, time to reroll and start on a new project!

You should get yourself checked out though by a chiropractor.

 

Sad to see a nice car ruined, but it did its job.
You're lucky - you could have been killed.
The car did its job and protected you.

 

I'm sad and sorry to hear this, witnessing you partner, or perhaps significant other, suffered a tremendous damage. Hope you are not injured, and it's time to try something new =)

 

That was a beautiful is300
sad to see it go

I lost mine the same way.. went into on coming traffic & ended up probably the exact same as yours.

Im glad everyone was okay with you

My fiance was driving mine at the time. Her neck, back, and many more things were injured. I've been in 5 accidents already so this almost fixed my back :P


This was my 2001.

Luckily I still have another is300 with a 2jz-GTE in it that didnt get crushed.. It was only my beater that died.

 

glad you are alright
what a shame, it was a beautiful IS

 

Thanks for the support.
I am sticking within the Jdm family.
Looking for a project car so I'll keep you updated on what it is.

 

Sorry to hear that and glad you're safe! I can't imagine heading towards oncoming traffic!

Those are beautiful pictures! Sad to see it go =(.

3GS as your next platform!

 

That sucks Aleks, Glad to see you're alright and staying JDM. Looking forward to see what you bring next.
