i was comin off of an off ramp (doin the speed limit everyone!) goin about 30 mph, and somethin happened where the back of the car kicked out from behind me and i spun around about 3 times and each time i hit the guard rail. 2 times up front on the drivers side and once in the back on the drivers side. it sucks. but if its totaled im stil gonna get another tC, i love the car too much to let go of it, well the brand anyways lol i dont want the same car just fixed up, im not that connected to it. but i do want to keep the scion name with me.

A friend of a friend of mine who bought a tC RS 1.0 from the dealership I work at ended up trying to take a turn she couldn't have possibly made at 80mph.... flipped the poor tC several times through a farm field.... although I guess a testimate to how safe a car the tC is, she was pulled out of the car without a scratch... the 1.0 is a total loss... looks like a crumpled aluminum can.
And there are no more 1.0's for her to get to replace it.... so she's upset... oh well, her stupid mistake.

sorry to hear that.

hey that link is to my thread

anyway, my brother did the same thing in a 9x camaro. we talked a lot about it and he entered the turn on the inside (WRONG) and mid turn (WRONG) either lifted off the throttle or braked a little. then it was over. spun car, totalled. now he drives a FWD maxima, hehe.

thanks everyone for your support, stuff like this is what makes me want to stay in the scion family! you guys/girls are awesome! thanks for the pics of you super whites everyone. if it is totaled ill be picked one of those up, either that or flint mica, hopefully they have one of those 2 on the lot as a 5 speed, cuz i really cant wait all that time for my car. i have school that i gotta commute to every day at the begining of september. i miss my car soo much, it really was my pride and joy. and i just washed it before the wreck.
