I honestly am almost speachless at the abuse this car is given..... It aint no beater to take into the hills and beat to **** man in the gravel and dirt. You damn near killed yourself due to the cliff and lost your car. I doubt after the police report insurance would pay for that car to get fixed or even cover the totaling of it. If they did that would another damn shame.
i was about to say the same thing but you beat me to it. well said i think you were to easy on him.... i work my XSS off to pay for my car RESPECT

I would ask you dial it back from the name calling since it's not allowed in here!!

NO MATTER HOW MUCH THEY DESERVE IT!!


Op did something most us would never attempt with our cars but again it's his to do with what he wants.

I don't want see anymore name calling.

Thank You

Just showed the VID to my GF. You has worse to say.... She hopes to have a Z at the end of the year after riding in mine for a couple months now. She cant think of a better car interior, exterior, and performance for the value. She says you dont respect that car nor should be called or allowed to be an owner of this "Z".

^I understand what your saying. And I agree it was stupid. That's why the video is called "lesson learned".I will never do that on THAT road again. But I disagree with you when you say I don't deserve it. I bust my *** at work to pay for the car. I worked hard for it. . Why have a car you can't have fun in? That's why I bought it. If you want a car for beauty, good for you. I bought the car to DRIVE it. And that's exactly what I intend to do with it.

The Z was just crying after the wreck...Glad you are enjoying it, and YES, you were on a isolated road, so good for you...

It's not like you were drifting on a busy street...

Lol did you hear me at the end off the video? I couldn't stop beating myself up about till I found out everything was ok. It's one of those things you just look back and laugh at how lucky you were. Like a near death experience lol

Its pretty silly to be drifting it on dirt roads. I agree you don't respect the car.

While what he did was stupid IMHO, we have to remember it is his car and we didnt buy it for him. Unfortunately for his car, he can abuse it however he sees fit. Im just glad to see he and the car is ok. Like others have already pointed out, it could have been much much worse.

The only thing that really pisses me off, is that we pay for the outcome that luckily didnt happen in this situation, but does in other situations through higher insurance premiums.

To the OP, you live and you learn man! You got very lucky this time, hopefully the next time, you'll go easier on it. I ****** up quite a few times before I learned to control this brutal monster.

To everyone else... Your opinion is nice & all, but I don't think you should be really bashing the OP this much. He's having fun, he's learning how to go sideways, and messing up is all a part of the game. Yeah so he's not driving the Z the way you think he should be.. So what? It's not YOUR car. I'm through 3 full sets of tires since this march. Does that make me an idiot too? Because I actually take this car to its fullest potential 110% of the time? Think about it...

Don't just judge a person by a clip of 10 seconds of their life. He didn't murder anyone. He's learning. And all of you here ****** up more than once in your life too. We all have.
