People who don't know how to drive stick should stay off hills!!!
 
My dad is away for a 9 day cruise vacation to the bahamas so I took his S55 AMG today.

Coming home I'm behind this old starlet and we are on a steep hill and its a red light. LIght turns green and the guy stalls out and starts rolling back and there is a decent amount of distance and I'm like whatever. He starts getting closer so I look behind me to see if I can back up but there is this truck up my tailpipes. The guy finally pulls up his ebreak but not before he taps the bumper. This is a 2006 S55 AMG with like 2000 miles on it. I jumped out and started flipping out and cursing at the guy. This mexican comes out and barely spoke english. Although I did catch him saying don't call the police he'll pay for damages, and I started yelling DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH THIS THING COSTS?!?!?! I CAN'T EVEN PAY FOR IT!!!!!!! I moved his damn car for him, it smelt like well like clutch. I carefully and I mean with a magnifying glass inspect the car. He's SOOOOOO lucky nothing happened to it, I mean REDICULOUSLY LUCKY!! I let him off with a "LEARN HOW TO DRIVE!!!"


OMG, I'm gonna have a heart attack!! I'm not leaving the house tonight.

they were called bumpers from the 60s and 70s when they were chromed and MEANT to hit things. No AMG has anything on it that should be called a bumper.

Damn LUCKKYY!!!

Car is SICKK!!

What color??

MPowerKai 09-15-2006 10:34 PM

Car is metallic black or whatever that sparkley black color is.

My friend dropped his motorcycle on my bumper on the M3, scratched off some paint but I wasn't all too concerned because it was my car. Then some CUTE CUTE CUTE korean girl rearended me once but only left an impression of a bolt and she was crying so I let her go lol. I'm pretty relaxed when it comes to my cars because they were meant to convienence me but I am very protective of my dads cars because he takes care of them better than he takes care of me lol.
