yea...2 weeks 1 day after getting my license I was coming around a turn going 35mph (speed limit there) but it was raining and it did all day so the roads were really wet. I downshifted from 3rd to 2nd not even thinking. Hit a pole and spun around. Front bumper, hood, both fenders. metal braces that the fenders bolt to, radiator, battery, power steering fluid thinger, some more...DONE. Sellin wheels end of this month, Going full Saleen or Roush Stage 3 kit with Saleen wheels.

What a blessing in disguise! Now the insurance company is going to pay for you to get that crap off your car! Please do better job this time round!!



Really sorry you had a crash though. Roush or Saleen look great (I like the Roush better - the Saleen is a tiny bit too much)

awww man, you became the sterotypical reason why I dont think parents should get a rwd v8 car for their kids first car.

I'm sorry you wrecked, but that stalker kit and those wheels looked like ass anyways

maybe you should buy a truck or something slower until you learn how to drive.

um... 2 weeks after getting your license... shifting into wrong gear... v8 mustang as first car... no comment. You should save the car in whatever shape they give it back to you and get a 1985 corolla or something with a 5 speed to learn on... for your own good. Then after a year sell it and get behind the wheel of the mustang again. You'll thank me.

I'm very supprised they didnt' total it off from the damage they saw and what they should expect to see when they pull it all apart. But I'm glad to hear you aren't dead.

Actually it is pretty f'n easy for the rear to fly out... Especially in the rain or loose gravel.

It can happen in a split second.

I dont know about your car but shifting into 2nd at 35mph isn't good for me.

I LOVE the look of Saleen, but if you go for that, be prepared to make frequent visits to your bodyshop to have them fix your Saleen kit that is either warping, falling off, or a combination of the two.

Roush seems to be good quality. I really havent heard of any complaints about their stuff, so you may be happier choosing that.

Right... If you want a Saleen kit your probably better off with a rip off! Saleen body parts are well known for being TERRIBLE.

Thank you! why is everyone being so cynical? Who here if offered a stang at an early age would be like..uhm no im not responsible enough? I bought mine at 16 w/ cash id saved for 6 years, only thing iv hit is the curb twice while parking in almost 4 years. My best friend had a 95 civic for 3 years after he got is lisence and just bought an SS comaro and stacked it into a parking lot light pole.....it involves being smart and being able to control your adrenaline
