Hi guys, im devastated i crashed my 911 yesterday on a rainy day i lost control on the higway at 70-80 mph and hit the concrete divider on my rear drivers fender. I guess the wheel took the most damage but overall Is this something that can be fixed or?
pretty devastated…was my first 911 after years of hardwork and this happened about 4 weeks after i bought the car. 15k miles on it.
p.s this is the only side that has been damaged, everything else is scratch free. Also it wont start - says instrument cluster failure inspection.
Update: frame is fine, everything is aligned perfectly. No engine damage, just rear axle and wheel need to be replaced. Will be back with more info once i have the final quote from Porsche.
Thanks to everyone who helped. Stay safe!
He's making a joke about a weird car subculture where people purposefully add VERY aggressive negative camber on their cars ("rides" or "whips" more likely) to give it "stance"
Not getting the reference is actually a good thing so sorry that you now know this....
was raining and the car hydroplaned, couldnt regain control , the car was sliding for at least 200 m and hit a concrete border on the rear driver wheel.
I’m glad you are ok!
I own exactly the same car so, if it’s not too traumatic, I’d like to know more details.
‘What tires? What temperature ? Did you hit some deep standing water? Was there a foreign substance involved like oil or antifreeze? Anything else you can remember?
Honestly 70 to 80 miles an hour in the rain doesn’t seem that uncommon around here. I confess to running 80+ yesterday in some 40 degree, light, intermittent rain on my Alpin 5’s without a hint of drama.
