Just trying to drive, man!!
I was taking the Blue M5 out for a spin. Its had a couple bugs that got worked out. Its been running pretty good. Anyway, I decide to feel some power in second gear. Not a couple seconds after i push down the Pedal
BOOM!!!
WTF!!!
smacked in the face by an airbag. Car comes to a real fast stop...stopped itself, ABS and all. Look around for a split second, All airbags except driver door and head are out. I see smoke. I jump out of the car. Look around.... don't see any damage....didn't hit anything....WTF??? The smoked was just smoke from the airbags. Look under the car....no fluids anywhere. Pop the hood...Everything looks to be intact.
Next I look on the road. There was a little cup thing on the ground... then i came across some little silver cylinders. Hmmm. UV joint???
My friend arrives to give me a tow. We go to push the car... all you here is CRUNCH, CRUNCH, CRUNCH. Must be the drive shaft.
So there you go. Im not sure excactly what it is... I haven't looked under the car yet. But i will tell you I need.... New windshield, 6 airbags...something under the car...Maybe a new headliner, and who knows what else. I'm so f-in pissed its insane.
People might tend to think I beat on my cars... I really appreciate what I have. I don't go blowing motors and bangin gears to break. I shifted mellow, Let the revs roll up to 3-3.5k and I hit it. Should the drive shaft break? Why the hell did the airbags go off? I honestly don't know what to do. I will say that I'm very disapointed. I don't have the time or money or heart for this sh!t. This was supposed to be my dream car.
