19 year old wrecks 2008 M3
Another story of parents with money and their kids:
crazy ****ing night....so my girlfriend had a kickback last night at her house. an hour after i arrive a kid in a brand new 08 m3 shows up...car doesnt even have 1000 miles on it yet...so me and 2 others decide to go for a little ride in it...car was ridiculously loud and fast....so we go up and down a hill a few times to warm the car up...then the genius decides to put it in M mode....he floores it up the hill...****ing fastest **** ever...then he loses control...hopes a curb...car turns sideways...and we end up in someones front yard...everyone walked out though thank god...i think my thumb is broken and i have a bruise on my collar bone from the seat belt. BMW crash system was amazing...i dont know how anyone could survive that we were probably going 60 mph... http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=593268 Last edited by LeMansX5; 07-23-2008 at 10:40 PM. |

Teenagers and 400+ hp machines are not agood mix, regardless of income level.
Side note, that car looks amazing underneath. |

Wow! Glad you are okay.
Hey, I'm new to the forum. I'm very glad that you are fine. Did all of the airbags deploy? I feel very safe in my X5.

Pathetic! When you are 19 you still have so much to learn about everything like for example how to drive. So giving a 400HP car to a teenager is just plain stupid IMO, rich or not. At 18 I crashed my dad's car, Alpha Romeo Alfetta 2l which only picked around 150HP at the time. This was all my fault, I lost traction on a curve while accelerating hard on a wet road and I thought I knew how to drive! I can remember the face of the old man when I told him :-)
So I can imagine with almost 3 times more HP. |

Dang, guys like him are why I pay so much for my car insurance. Just not fair being lumped in the same age brackets as these morons. Only 5 more years.
Pretty cool picks though. Thank god his parents got him something this safe so he didn't kill somebody. |

You don't escape death every time, even in a BMW. Remember the story of 5 kids in airborne BMW M5 earlier this year.
If these kids in M3 were doing 90+ it would have been a different story. Some people like speed but remember Speed kills. With great POWER comes great RESPONSIBILITY. Drive Responsibly. M5 crash pic. All 5 Dead.

I'm saying in regards to the safety of the vehicle. Not saying the driver's actions were in any way justified. Imagine if that was an old mustang or a suv or something like that, they'd all be dead. Thank God he didn't end up killing one of his friends.
