Ill go buy a ford F250 and hit you in your FXGT.. see who comes out on top!

Ill be willing to bet all my money that you will have less injuries in the F250, if you even realise you have hit the poor FXGT.

Yeah those frameless windows is what does it in the subbies I guess.

Ha ha someone should ring up and get a quote on a silvia, then ring back the next day with the exact same information looking for a quote on a 200sx, see if its the same price.

The principle of insurance is everyone shares the risk - otherwise you may as well put your money into a bank account.
Money, Power, Reliability... Pick 2 :)

Yeah but that's what scares the shit out of me...

People who arent confident driving, go and buy the biggest $&#$% thing that they can, so they wont get hurt in a crash.

So the people who are most likely to crash into someone, are also the people in the vehicles most likely to kill someone else when they do. :?

Only problem with a 4wd is that if you hit something as big or bigger than you due to lack of crumple. Being such a strong chassis I understood it that you'd come out worse off than a car that crumples easy. Doesn't matter if you hit something smaller however as THEY become your crumple zone :lol:

Could be wrong here, but makes sense to me :oops:

They also pose a risk to other vehicles even if they're not involved in the crash. Because bigger cars are higher, they look like they're closer to the left side of the road to useless c**t tractor runners. Therefore, they sit right on the center line, and cross it every time they pass a parked car despite the road being 8x the width of a car...
So if you're (me) turning right into a side street, and can see there's no-one behind the oncoming on-the-center-line cayenne, and don't see the Charade pulling out from the curb on the otherside of the intersection... YOU (me) have to pay $1200 to fix a $500 Charade!!! (not to mention the front end of my old skyline :( )
Tip for successfull rally driving: Don't sink you're car in the first pond to catch your eye.
