oh shit is that you 9k??!!??

 

Insurance fraud ftw!

 

Oh, shit. :shock:

 

 

I am playing "Taps"

 

What happened?????

 

Looks like you have a severe detonation problem. I would definately retune asap. Tell me this isn't your 9000 please.

It is, at least it has the same front plate, painted grille, wheels, valve cover, oh and the hood is completely off

 

We used two very large extinguishers on it but it started right up again. It took all 3 fire departments that were not even 5 minutes away over 20 minutes to respond. By then it was a complete loss. The ATL cell held up and is in better shape than anything else and it didnt let any fuel out. I took complete coverage off the car about two weeks ago. Left on the comprehensive on it which covers fire damges. A+

 

what a tease

 

Are you parting it out

 

Love it ! Dam I am so sorry about your Car !!!, Anything left over you want to get rid of ?

 

um que?

what the hell happened?

 

um que?

What the hell happened?

x2

 

Danger to manifold!!!!!

Sucks...

 

 

kinda looks like it converted itself back into a 4 door!

can't wait to see the next project!

 

Soooo...when my little turbo started smoking...it must have felt this disturbance in the force.

 

Sympathy smoke, clearly.

Geez, Kaylan, sorry to see that. Where/when did it happen?

 

Soory to hear/see that Glad to see that your ok. What's going to be your next project?

 

Damn...

 

To think of all the work and money that's gone into that thing, you don't sound too disappointed. Glad to see no one is hurt but damn! What a tragic loss!

 

Cuz now I can has a red one.

 

I'd cry
And cry more, then think about the car

And cry more . Your like super women not even phased by it

 

I was really singing the "we dont need no water" song after 10 minutes of burning and no fire trucks. It was a loss by that point.

No use being upset. It happened and now im going to do a better one. I think the gearbox is about the only thing left.

The things I AM upset about are: I forgot to grab my purse, steering wheel, and NIRA, and my CD's. All of which I could have taken without putting myself in any danger. Other than that I couldnt have done anything more than I did.

 

cars can be replaced

 

So can we

<< BAMF

 

you make no sense some times you know that.

 

Still haven't said what caused it?


It is a shame though. I know how it feels, funny when it happens that you're not more upset. when mine burned I was more worried about the rest of the building smoking.

 

Still haven't said what caused it?

umm wiring of some sort? Fire Marshal wouldnt come out and look because the value of the vehicle was so low.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

did you have the car insured as a regular 9k aero or did you have it appraised and insured at a agreed value???

 

Farmers wouldnt do an agreed value. I was going to do that today with another company. HAHA. what a joke, right? My agent told me a couple months back that I HAVE to switch companys to protect myself. I wasnt anticipating a fire. :lol:

soo how much will you be getting for the crispy 9k? any idea?

IDK. $4k - $6k. I guess thats better than selling and letting someone else drive my baby.

if it went out with the extinguishers and then re ignited im 95% sure it was a short in wiring. was the car running or did you shut it off once it caught?

Shut it completely off while we were still going like 40. I lost brakes immediately. I had to finish stoping with the e-brake. By the time we stopped we couldnt see each other. My middle finger is burned. I think it was my cars final "FUCK YOU."

its what happens to the vdubs, and i personally had a disaster with and old 50's pickup and almost burned down my friends shop.

 

ahh vdubs, the g60 was notorious for electrical fires
