oil on the ground, doing a left turn at 10 miles an hour, did a 180 hit the front passenger light totally busted along with the wheel well hitting the tire, without a crowbar moving the wheel well its undriveable cause the tire hits the wheel well and turning the wheel turns the whole hood and front body. Rear bumped crushed in due to 180 spind hit a damn SUV, everyone is ok. I lost my car though so im not ok. I hope i get a new one. However the new TL is not bad, rear wheel drive for me is kinda new and i guess i dont have enough expierence with it. I really want a coupe but i feel like a jackass for messing up my car. I really wanted to hang my self at the scene or just take the cops gun and shoot my self

I did same thing back in 93'. 10mph left turn after a short rain,
spun a 92 MR2 turbo, I was just lucky enough that nobody was
around. Stuff happens, even in at sub 2k rpm if you hit a slick
spot, you spin. Hopefully you will be able to get another G after
the insurance is done bending you over.

Soon to be a G35 owner.
For now I just surf the web 30hrs/week reading!

Yeah man, I was really stupid that day. I was trying to show off the G to my friend and I didn't realize that the 2nd half of the exit ramp was still wet from earlier rain. I don't know how, but I saved the car twice in that incident. I couldn't believe I made it out safe and so did my car. The only bad thing was that after the 360, I got stuck in the mud on the side of the road. As I was calling Infiniti Roadside Assistance, this nice guy with a Jeep Wrangler came by and towed me out. The next day I just washed off the whole car and got rid of all the mud under the car and the rear wheels. That was the luckiest day of my life!! Few things I learned:

1) Never drive fast during rain!!! Especially on turns!!
2) Carry a flashlight in your car. (I'm actually buying the whole Infiniti Roadside Emergency kit)
3) Keep Infiniti Roadside Assistance's # in your cell phone.
4) Keep your owner's manual in your car, not at home. (Glad I put it in my car 2 days before the incident)

I feel your pain sir! I am also glad you are ok.

I lost my G doing about 40 on New Year's Day! I have a supercharged G, and I turned off the VDC, dropped in 2nd and slammed the gas to pass a guy. Oh yeah...did I mentioned it had just rained about an hour before and the roads were still damp. So damn stupid of me.

It was 9,000 to fix it and a 26.2% increase in my insurance, but it could have been way worse! (No body got hurt thank God!)

Wow,sorry to hear your car got wrecked Thehin but you gotta have pespective; it is still only a car and is replaceable. Main thing is you and the other vehicle's occupants are ok. It is a hassle but insurance should cover it. you should hardly be blaming yourself based on your description of how it happened. Chalk this one up to sh*t happens . Don't settle for a TL if you like the coupe.

This tells us all we really have to take it easy in the rain with this carand for sure wet days are not a time to test the limits (right Kashif).
