Default 1991 Turbo Cabriolet (Damaged)

Car got hit tonight . I just cant get a break with these 944's

Some indian retard decided he would just cross 6 lanes of traffic with no consideration of anyone in the road.

I saw him coming and tried to dodge but he still hit me, spinning the car around a few times and sending it into the grass.

The car drives great, the engine has ~2500 miles on it since being rebuilt by Xsboost.

Thats fine. I am not trying to be racist. My opinion is that indian people cant drive and no one can change my opinion about that. I feel I am entitled to that.

make sure he pays for everything, that cars too nice and too big a project to just let go. damage appears to be all on the quarter panel and maybe wheel.

dan, your assistance is needed on aisle 3

If he weren't from India, would he not have hit you?

Correct.

This was in Herndon, VA. When I got hit like 30 indian people ran out and pretended they all "saw" it. They tried to tell the cops it was my fault, but the cops told them all to leave after he got a few of their testimonies.

The cop said they all saw me "hit" the Audi. Then the cop told me that one of his friends tried to blame me, but ended up working it in my favor by what he said. They citied him a few tickets and he was yelling and complaning.

The cop said that "Birds of Feather flock together". The guy that hit me got out of his car and said to me "What were you thinking, man?".

........ Not trying to turn this into a racist thread at all but DAMN! Some people are STUPID!

I don't see how it's possible for you to have 'hit' the Audi with the location of the damage to your car. Unless of course you were doing donuts in the intersection and he got in your way...

Seriously though, it's a damn shame. I don't know which is sadder...your car sitting there like that or the damage your car did to the Audi.

And btw, nice phone dial...

Man...it's one thing to accidentally hit another's car but to get out and say that. In the heat of the situation...I would probably have decked him. Trying to pin the accident on you....you are a stronger man than me.
