The final shots of my G

And I close the book on the 2nd car I've owned...

Had great time, learned to drive stick with her, learned a ton of lessons and ways to express my work on these cars.

If the lease take over I'm trying to hop on now doesn't come through, I'll be back with another 6MT sedan.

Here's some shots I took the day I put the headlights on, and then some from Time Square right after BigA detailed her. And then the aftermath at the junk yard.











<3 the mirrors







Aftermath - slippery bridge, vdc off, down shift from 4th to 3rd and the car slammed into the wall rear first, then pivoted the front into the wall and after countersteer attempts it went sliding to the right down the bridge for 20ft+ picking up speed till it slammed into the wall again. I was sitting shotgun, no injuries to me or the driver, no other cars were on the road.

Whoa, isn't this the second accident with the car, the reason why you did the '10 bumper conversion. Sorry to hear this man, glad everyone is OK. Love what you did with this car.

My car was a 2010 so it wasn't a conversion, the first accident was with the car parked on the corner and someone giving it $13K in damage and then leaving the scene.
