Every time I open some site, I find, broken, front end damaged, pole damage, to our MM,s ? :bigcry: Good and bad, good for some, less out there, (thats sick), someone had an accident ! Bad, maybe the insurance companys will take note, and all MM rates will change....could happen..!
some won't insure "Cigarette" style boats. What I'm saying is, come on everyone, slow down, think ! be carefull and treat it like your mom, :bows: with love and devotion.....

I lost my DTR a couple years ago due to kid that had been out partying all night, fell asleep behind the wheel and plowed into my wife on her way to work at 7 o'clock in the morning. Hard to defend against that.

E-Dubb scratched up the front end of the DBP last winter when he hit some black ice heading down a curve on the way back to our house. He was doing about 15 mph at the time.

I agree with what you're saying about being careful; but sometimes, unfortunately, :censor: happens.

BIG +1 on that!

The DTR saved my wife's life, I'm convinced of that.

We only think they are beening damaged in record numbers. Truth is we love the cars so much it hurts to see one damaged or wrecked.

As much as I like the car, it is a car. Pour gas into hole, put right foot to floorboard.

EXAAAACTLY! I have owned the car less than two years and I am on my full second set of both winter and summer tires and the second set of each are almost gone!! How can you drive this car and not roast the tires!?!?!? I have made the decision... I learned my lesson this winter... if my car comes out looking awesome (even if it doesn't) I am going to have a winter beater for next winter... my car will probably not be fixed until the end of this winter, so that will be perfect for me! Roll out of the shop and put the nice wheels on her!! Worry about the winter beater next year!

you are seeing this because they are cars, not show pieces.

Uhm, I hate too see them get wrecked, but the more that do, the more rare the remainder become.
