Ever wonder what happened to emax02? INSANE CRASH!!

What up guys, long time no see. Since I use to think of you guys like my family I feel I should share my story. On January 5th I was driving to fast and went off of the rode. The result was about 95 MPH into a forest. A link of the original post and pics can be found at: http://forums.mbworld.org/forums/sho...d.php?t=179267

The car was a 2002 C32 AMG, it got ripped in half. I am still nursing a busted left leg, but otherwise I am doing quite well.

I currently have a 2003 Lexus LS430, it's no fun to drive though. I am probabaly going to get a C63 AMG next Spring or a 2004 E55 AMG.

Thanks for the kind words guy's, I missed you all.

GTR-Rider, was it you who was in that crazy accident a while back?

holy $hit man, i didnt think anyone would live from that mess. Perhaps thats why you pay more for german engineering.

Oh well if you get a C63 AMG or E55 AMG, have you looked at the CLS63 or the CLS65?

Im sure any of those cars would make you very happy lol.

The car looks like it was chewed up by one of those monster truck show robots. You are, without a doubt, one lucky person.

The full discription of the incident can be found at the link in my original post. I was in fact ejected from the car, the seatbelt snapped. The car landed about 6 inches to my right...


Today I picked up a 2004 E55 AMG, fully loaded minus the panoramic sunroof. The car is outragesly fast with 469HP and 516 TQ. The car's seats actually move when you take corners, they even have a message feature, lol. Don't worry, I will drive it slow on the road, the track is another story though
