I had been on a one week roadtrip with a friend and we were driving home actually.. Had been driving about 350 kilometers and stopped to eat. Done eating and got back into the car. Drove for like 30 minutes and was doing about 50 mph. Right hand corner and right rear wheel got into a pothole. Car jumped up from the hole and lost traction and flew head on into the gutter on the left side of the road. Car flipped up and around rear end first and flew up in the air and a good 20 feet(10 meters) out from the gutter, then landed on the rear end and plowed the ground. Stopped a bit further away on the roof.

Car status: totaled!

3 of 4 headlights ok. Driver side rear panel ok, all other panels and exterior completely smashed to pieces. Rear axle is broken in half. Engine seems ok, but is all messed up (it's kinda not facing the direction it should anymore).

Roof is smashed, hood is smashed, trunk is smashed. Front window broken, but intact. Right hand windows gone (shattered when we got out of the car). Rear window is all gone from impact. Left hand windows are ok, but a bit dirty tongue.gif

The interior of the car is like brand new.. Crazy, but true. I don't get to keep anything anyway though, so I kinda don't care.

2 people in the car and only damage was the burn damage from the cars safety buckle (spelling?).

4 brand new Rockford Fosgate speakers in the trunk (was going home to install) are all ok, and about 2 000$ worth of authentic Final Fantasy (japanese rpg stuff) are mostly scratched and dirty, but seems ok. 50 other cds and minor stuff are 97% ok. One kinda broken, but working cellphone and the other one is still ok.

We got a few pictures, but they were all taken in complete darkness so nothing much to see. I will post them as soon as I get them from my friend (his camera).

Haven't hear from insurrance yet but hopefully I will get a complete refund for the car (about 18 000$). My bonus is of course going down the drain, but who cares. We are both ok and that's the important thing.

Not sure what car to get next time.. I will have to take a shower and a good night sleep before I think more about this. All this happened less then 24 hours ago, so I'm still kinda messed up inside my head.
