Next time you spend $145k on a car...

[timo]

Please dont wreck it in less than 24 hrs!

 

[agfish18]

ouch... was that yours?

 

[timo]

nah... One of my customers. Head on with a Dodge Ram 1500. It happened a while back, but the company doesn't like us posting these kind of pics right away, if you know what I mean.

 

[jerseymayhem]

Aston Martin?

 

[fishgutz]

How do you spell "Loooozzzzerrrrrrr?"
Did the dude survive?

I heard a tale about a Ford sales rep that decided to take a $380K Ford GT for a spin before the customer picked it up. Got plowed pulling out of the parking lot.

Aston Martin V8 Vantage. Customer walked away without a scratch. Any time you hear people say "a corvette is better", think about this picture... cause in my experience, a corvette in this same style accident would have ended in fatality. These cars are tough, well designed and well built.

I just cried a little.

 

[upthemaiden]

haha, I would've loved to have been the guy in the pickup that smashed a $145 car, assuming it wasn't my fault.

 

[Ronin1]

I could buff that right out!

 

[xtremelow]

Damn that is my dream car, those cars are the cats ass! Details, craftsmanship, all around just beautiful.

 

[Midnight82]

DANG!!!!!!!!!!!

Have details on the wreck? Fault? Speed? etc

 

[Sleez]

if it has the 4.3 in it, i want it!!!

 

[Pockets]

You'd be lucky if that block wasn't cracked.

Have details on the wreck? Fault? Speed? etc

From what I heard it was around a 70+ mph combined collision speed. Aston drivers fault. I also heard that it hit the truck so hard, the driverside wheel and tire(on the Ram) went through the fender and flew 40+ feet in the air.

if it has the 4.3 in it, i want it!!!

Sleez- it is a 4.3L... but the newer 4.7L is an incredible engine!

 

[Sleez]

i want the 4.3, cuz that's what i have in my S10, of course it's a chevy V6 not an Aston V8.

wait for it....swap in an Aston V8....my S10 becomes an "S10Martin"!!!

been wanting to do it for a year or so now!! of course finding a runner AM 4.3 with complete harness and computer is like finding a golden egg!!!

oh well, some dreams are destined to die!

 

[BRatigan]

I'll give you $50.00 bucks for it. Oh and can you deliver?

[Sidewinder]

They put his wheel back on backwards. [confused]

 

[RyBuell]

it was probably the only way to get it back on...not that anyone was driving away.
