wrecked 5.0 in less than a day
so i picked my new mustang up this morning, had my borla s types put on and when driving. my wife and I met my family for dinner, and to show the car off. on the way home we were sitting a a light and two guys pulled up next to use on motorcycles. when the light tired green they both tried to do wheelies one did the other did not. he then feel into my car bike first. so now my new car is wrecked, the passenger side is all messed up. the rim in ruined and the front is also bad. I just can't believe it, i waited two months for this car and i loved it. I just feel sick at this point. the guy was ok so thats good and so are we. what a day, my wife was just staring to get over a bad anxiety about driving. we hit a deer and two months after buying her first new car then we were hit in houston. things just suck. my back is killing me i picked up his bike. sorry for rambling just needed to write something.

Wow.. I hate hearing stories like that.. Especially since the car is messed up that bad. Glad your ok.. Is it door forward or the rear as well. The fronts and door parts are easier to replace then getting the hind quarter worked on.. **** some bad luck sorry to hear..

I'm so sorry to hear that, stupid fools driving bikes trying to do wheelies.... the guys is lucky as I too would have taken out the bat ..... especially bike riders, they must be BETTER drivers than the rest of us, when they are stupid, we all pay.

What is it about stangs getting hit... I had to think for a sec, all 3 of my accidents (none my fault) were in a 99 GT. owned that for only 5 of my 16 driving years and no other crashes. Now on this site I see all kinds of accidents caused by other drivers hitting Mustangs. Crazy

Man, that sucks. +1 on the baseball bat. I hate those douchebags that ride like that. I ride myself and enjoy hauling **** as much as the next guy, but the huge wheelies and weaving in and out of traffic splitting lanes just pisses me off. It's usually some 19 year old idiot on a 170 HP sport bike he has no clue how to ride. It's a miracle more aren't killed.
You have some pictures of the damage?

awww im sorry to hear about your bad lucks, i'm sure things will only get better from here on.
.
i hope the guy on the bike learns his lesson. sometimes i feel that we humans are just such a flawed species, almost all of us liked to race and show off a bit at least some point in our life.
when i first got my car, i was just constantly reminding myself not to do anything stupid and drive like a mature person. but at least once a day someone will pull up from behind to right beside me and start staring at me and revving their engines. sometimes it just pisses me off but i have always held back from entering some stupid street racing thing. but the worst is when some ******* tailgating me on the highway... they just bring you with them when they do something stupid.

This is yet another reason why street racing should be a higher fine when caught. You were smart by not paricipating, yet two boneheads felt they had to prove something. In this case, their stupidity. I agree with another post that these idiots should not be allowed to breed.
Glad you and the wife are alright. My 21 year old niece did not fair well with street racing. She was at a stop light, on her way home from college. Two idiots were racing; one blew through the red light and kept going. The other hit the back Of my niece's car, smashing her into the car in front of her. She died in the hospital two days later.
When I see posts on this kind of activity, it reminds me of how her life was wasted by jerks who think street racing is a valid type of sport. They usually survive, and the inocent folks don't.

Sorry to here, I lost my new 2010 GT Prem in under 6 hours of picking it up from the dealer. Short story some JACK *** hit and run put me into a wall on the interstate so I know how you feel.
