Worst Moment - Now...I`m not driving it!

[RickJamesBish]

Best: When I first got her...I fell for her the first time I saw her, she was beautiful...taking her home in all her shined and waxed glory, windows down, AC off, music blasting. Beautiful first car, and I'm still happy. Also putting in a new head unit and speakers with my dad, made driving so much better now that I have the ability to play my own music.

Worst: When I picked my car up from this girl's house at 2:30 in the morning after having left it there for two hours, and finding two giant dents in the fender. Also finding various scratches from time to time...sucks to be in a school parking lot.

[RickJamesBish]

Oh, NVM...scratch that.

[nakamura]

^ I think you need to switch those two.

No...that's by far the best response I've ever had.

a wide body integra...? dude celicas are so much better than integras.

No they arent!! Integras are brilliant! Assuming you get the typeR. One of the best designed chassis' in the world!

Those are two good reasons for your car to be confiscated.

X2. I'll be taking that Celica from you now.

[RickJamesBish]

And actually, I revise my earlier statement...how the **** do you shift into reverse at 40 with an auto? :fail: :fail: :fail:

[GriffGirl]

And actually, I revise my earlier statement...how the **** do you shift into reverse at 40 with an auto? :fail: :fail: :fail:

Your shifter is loose and you somehow manage to bump it from D to R because you are a complete dumbass... next thing you know you're going sluggishly forward, yet at 50 mph, but your tires are squeeling because they're in reverse and you're like OH SH!T and you realize what just happened but are grateful that A) No one was looking; B) You were on wet pavement; C) You didn't drop the brand spanking new transmission you spent 3 days putting in just a few weeks earlier; and finally D) that you're not only driving a Toyota, but it's a 4Runner and had you bit it, at least you were in a big car to provide you with a few more inches between the top of your head and the pavement.

Oh crap, did I just say all that out loud?

Yes. FAIL FAIL FAIL. EPIC FAIL.

How the fcuk do you...

Eh... Nevermind. I've done worse

[96bluevert]

My friend accidentally put my car into N when we were on a cruise last year. Next thing I know, I'm on the gas and slowing down . Good thing I caught it quickly and went back to D.

[D-Man]

Oh that won't hurt your car. My older cousin used to do it to me just to piss me off. Then we'd get into a fist fight while driving down the frwy.

[richee3]

Drive to neutral in an auto is one thing. Your trans will let you do that. But you have to have the brake on to shift into reverse, so I'm curious how that "accidentally" happened. And D-Man, I think getting into a fist fight on the freeway might just be your best Celica moment For some reason, I can just see you driving along and not just getting into some regular fight, but something more like this:

[RickJamesBish]

^ Yeah that...not only does the brake have to be applied, but there's also a locking mechanism that won't allow you to shift into reverse or park when the car is in motion.

FAIL FAIL FAIL

Yeah, pretty much, but mind you i'm this lil 6ft 150lb guy and my cousin is 7'2 weighin in at 230-240's and we were in a damn 03' Pontiac Sunfire going home (as we both worked construction together at the time) so i was the chicken and got my ass kicked (plus i was driving so i had to call truse; and still take the sucker punch that followed in fear of wrecking. )

My cousin was a bastard.

It's a joke, don't you guys get it? Someone who mistakes a celica for another car just makes it more worthwhile to drive the 6gc. Uniqueness and standing out of the crowd.

[celica9110]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jpoki4wBwtA

[RickJamesBish]

I could see how someone not knowing what I drive would make it more "exotic," but I wouldn't necessarily want it compared to an Integra...although the headlight arrangement does look similar.

[richee3]

I think the Integras are hideous compared to the Celica. Our cars have great body lines, whereas the Integra's lines are subtle to nonexistant. Their headlights are too small for me. That's just my opinion. I'd still love to have a type R though

At least you guys don't get "Hey, that's a sharp-looking Tiburon you've got there!" once a week. Please don't compare my 'Yota to that Hyundai piece of s***! Lol

Yes, I'm hatin' on the Hyundai's.

Not a very good one

I prefer Erotic
That's why i call those acura's Mini-me's.

[GriffGirl]

FAIL FAIL FAIL

Not on a 4Runner with old shifter handle bushings. Anyway you didn't have to have your foot on the brake to shift into reverse. Park, yes, and to release it from park, yes.

Anyway, it was an accident! Geeze! Don't I get ONE stupid chick driving thing in my life?

[RickJamesBish]

Actually, that was directed at mrgrape of course...but you can get an honorable mention fail too.

Thats so true the local toyota dealership said they were gonna charge me extra because they don't carry acura parts I was like wtf ?? My car is not even debadged...

[terbear4god4life]

i was gonna back up and i was going ahead bout 2 mph and i pushed the clutch in and tried to go to reverse i was ganna stop than go back but it made this loud noise and i don't like loud noises was that bad for the trans?

[mitchy]

Oh that won't hurt your car. My older cousin used to do it to me just to piss me off. Then we'd get into a fist fight while driving down the frwy.

I do that to my friends in drive throughs when im driving shotgun, except theyre in manuals and i put it in neutral while they're ordering, then they go to take off and wonder why its not working so sometimes rev it a lil more just incase, cracks me up

[D-Man]

Anyway, it was an accident! Geeze! Don't I get ONE stupid chick driving thing in my life?

No.

You're not some stupid ass (stereotypical) chick driver; So you get no leniency. I personally expect better from you griffy; you're too smart for that schett. But i will chalk this one up as a learning mistake / accident to be more weary of. If you've learned your lesson and you pay more attention to this fact now; then you're off the hook.

(as i tell my daughter) Did you learn something from this?

[crwarrior]

best : having a big ass truck in front of me thinking my car was a supra(little did i know that guy was a friend i went to highschool with and said my car was awesome )

worst : getting stopped by a cop doing 95 on a 40 mph zone and getting my car taken away (3 days ago) sucks...sigh

Griffy, Definitely can. I have no doubts about that. I'm more so surprised to hear that she ever had a problem. i cannot vouch for my chick in the same respects though

[Tigawoods]

Worste: Slung a rod a month ago, car is still sitting under my carport. whats worse is when i bought the car the guy had just had it port and polished a year before.

^ I was gonna say, if your friends don't know it who cares? I assume they're driving around in wee little 206s and Fiestas and Ibizas and Puntos.

[D-Man]

Duh...

Because it's poserish to run around in an ST acting all hard... and 105-110hp?

Oh wait, he's in Europe... Nevermind. It's a pretty good car then.
