I think a majority of time that is the case.


I still wanna see pics of the car though.

kinda off topic but if your Z is unrepairable and don't know what to do with it i've always wanted to see someone do this irl

Have we decided to part this out yet? Dibs on the engine :tup:

I was under the impression that VDC did its striking by being off. :confused:

Nope that would go to the guy being in the driver's seat, pressing the button to the left of the steering wheel, striking again. VDC did what it is supposed to do when it is off....nothing.

And therein lies the joke. :shakes head:

OP: This is too much. Older driver showing off, son retrieves and chastises dad, VDC off, then tells us on the forum for a bunch of incompassionate a-holes to criticize . Are you pitching us a sit com.

I am sorry for your story. I hope it is salvageable.

really? I don't. I hope his insurance covers it and gets it off the road and the OP back on his feet. If there's damage to the frame or anything the car will never drive the same again.

LOL, I've got gap on my '09, just incase.

:iagree:

Does the phaser II have a flashing light as well?

I wish I still had the models of the Star Trek props I built when I was a kid.

Sorry to hear your hit the median, i drive with VDC off alot and never had an issue with losing control. You need to get a feel for the car, they are very controllable. VDC off shouldn't mean = instant crash. Get her fixed and get back on the road! And maybe get some practice in controlling the car in a slide if you get the opportunity to go to a track of some kind, or an abandoned parking lot, ect.

Should read up on the crash threads... Damn near every one involves "VDC Off" But yes I do agree, it shouldn't mean instant crash. But when there is a crash, 90% of the time it's Hooning gone bad without VDC

All of these accident threads are making me feel like I'm driving on borrowed time. Knock on wood!
