Antelope maybe. (Sorry if I misunderstand you, we don't have antelopes in OHIO, but we have plenty of insects, and to me "ant" is the insect)
yea man!! the insect. No it isnt short for anything. It was an actual ant (a cm in size or mm dont know which one). this little thing almost got me killed. But yea, i didnt want to run over the ant. I didnt want to have to pick it up and make a proper tombstone for it and burry it.

It doesn't need park distance control, and hates decadence. It is musclepacked, yet lightly wound. It lets you feel the asphalt and get you going with the smallest touch of the pedal. It provokes, seduces, and demands to be driven hard. It looks, sounds, and smells like performance.

I hope this is a joke to rustle a few feathers... I know you get off on that crap. Who can even see an "ant" on the road when traveling (from the looks of your wreck) as fast as you? Something seems fishy. But if this is the true story...swerving for an ant?, then I must tell you to Kill Yourself....TAKE YOUR OWN LIFE, COMMIT SUICIDE!!! How has Charles Darwin's selectionism enabled you to survive this long in life???

Jesus! You could've lost control to save the "ant" hopped a curb and popped a couple of school children, but you were unfortunately lucky enough to only wreck your car and not go to jail for wreckless manslaughter...:sigh:... at least you have that Lambo to destroy next....WAKE THE FCUK UP!

Yup, the Lambo, and the uh....M3 and the, uh......E46 and what else did you claim to have???? Oh, the Acura.....which I believe he has shown pics of.
What we should do is just don't respond to his threads....period.
Maybe he'll go away quietly..........

I can't believe you are not joking; hit the animal every time it is cheaper on the insurance and on the repair. Swerving to miss animals will put you off the road or in a path of another driver and to me any human life is worth a billion dead animals. Excuse me please but I have two friends that wrecked their cars trying to miss animals and one is crippled slightly and the other has had extensive plastic surgery with limited success.

You are sick if it really was a insect but I think you are joking because how could you determine you saw a ant on the road at any rate of speed.

I can't believe you people actually believe that story. Obviously a joke because he doesn't want to say what really happened.

So we only got 2 smart people?

Jesus christ people of coarse its a damn joke. Who the f**k can see an ant on the floor while driving anyway? God, you guys are VERY closed minded.

The story of what happen isnt even interesting but even if i did say what happen you guys wont believe so why even say it right?

Slickmister, i am awake, and i cant believe you could actually tell someone to commit suicide. But your so perfect in life that everything you do is so perfect right? I can tell you now, i feel sorry for you Its very very sad

I can start with this....

First of all, it didnt involve in a street race or any type of race.....

and there, in most of your guy's eyes, I have already started lying. So like i said, theres no point to tell if you guys dont believe me already with just that one sentence i started. So from there one, it would just be a "lie"

If this board paypals me some money and come up with 65 dollars total then ill tell. LoL J/K.

But yea, what happen, happen and thats something i cant change. Just get my Ti back and running again and continue with my life.

Dude you're crazy in the head. Sorry for telling you to kill yourself. We all make mistakes...here I'll take some of the heat off you. I wrecked a $31K vehicle the first year I owned it. Flipped it bumper to bumper but landed shiny side up. Sh!t happens to alot of people for alot of reasons. We aren't singleing you out, we just want to know what happened. Natural curiousity, not out to get you. We're all compadres on this site. But when you start lieing just for the fun of seeing peoples reactions, thats when you have a problem. Get over yourself...your not the first kid to put a BMW into a wall and you won't be the last.

Yeah, I had tracked the car about 4 times that year so the tires were a bit worn, and like an idiot I didn't realize how much dirt and gravel was on the road surface. Turned out to be one of THE biggest mistakes of my life.

That reminds me - summer 2k5 I was working in syracuse ny. Driving back to rochester after my last day in syracuse, maybe 5-10 miles from rochester, I see EVERYONE in front of me slamming on their brakes and pulling off to the side and median. This scared the living daylights (partly because I was starting to get sleepy and not as alert as I could be) out of me, and I brake down to about 30 mph and a few seconds later passed either a mercedes or bwm couple that had flipped over. From what I could tell in the couple seconds I saw this, the guy (or woman) had fallen asleep at the wheel, drifted into the median and flipped the car. I was kinda tired that afternoon driving back but seeing that (and everyone suddenly stopping and running off the road) woke me up.

My first accident was in an '86 735i. Car was 10 years old, I had just gotten my license 6 months previous. Crashed into the side of a mountain and totalled it. From the driver's compartment, I could see the back of the engine poking up underneath the hood.

That mountain jumped out of nowhere directly into my way.
