Your Z accident reminds me of my accident a few years back with two Skylines. I was in Okinawa cruising down the 58 and got rear-ended by two Skylines that were racing. Actually, I was side swiped by one and that made me swirve in front of the other one and he nailed me good! My car was lifted off the ground and spun around in the air at least 3 times before landing and flipping over in a ditch. I walked away with only a scratch on my leg. My friend who was with me didn't have any injuries. My car was totalled...the back end was almost totally ripped off. If anybody were in the back seats they would have been killed.

The first Skyline that side swiped me was white and only had a broken mirror and a few scratches. The Skyline that rear-ended me was gray...it was totalled! The front end looked a lot like my rear end...it was almost totally smashed in and ripped off. Believe it or not, everybody walked away from this ugly accident.

I will say that the white Skyline looked pretty much stock, but the gray one was heavily modified. Even wrecked it still looked sweet.

Physical do you mean as in me or the car? The police closed the whole high way my friend was coming from a club and said there was a whole line of cars waiting for road to be open. The helicopter landed on the highway and I was airlifted to jackson ryder trauma center, where then I was resucitated twice for a laceration on my radial aretery (aterey on my left wrist) then had a blood transfusion followed after. More pics give me a second.

Yeah. I was found to be at fault in the accident. My insurance paid the maximum payment to the other parties involved. I had to pay an additional $8000.00 out of my own pocket because my insurance was maxed out. Apparently the gray Skyline had some really expensive mods. To make things worse my car wasn't covered, so I was making payments on a car that was totalled. I only owned the car for a day and a half before totalling it!

Well I dont live at church to be honest but I do go frequently and thank God when ever I have a chance at church. My mom is a faithful catholic and stuck to god and had faith all the way through the hospital that I would make it through. Coencidentaly i went to church two days before my accident.

Even though I don't know you, glad you're ok and not paralyzed or dead. It's a wonder how fate works sometimes. Absolutely beautiful new G by the way and $16k cash is a great deal, I've been looking all over for one!
