How many FDs have you personally wrecked?
I was wondering because it seems that almost every day these is another thread about a car being wrecked.

It would be interesting to get a count of those wrecked and compare it to the number imported.

Umm, what are the chances of someone wrecking more than one FD?

I'm sure you hear about wrecks a lot, but its not all coming from the same owners...

Chances are they wreck the FD, get sick of the hassle to buy one again...and end up with a Dodge Stratus.

If you read the post again, you might see that I was curious to get a count of wrecked cars. If you didn't wreck one, then you wouldn't/shouldn't post. If you did wreck more than one, then that would tell me that two cars have been destroyed in this instance.

"none" is/should be an option to the question you asked ("How many FDs have you personally wrecked? "). It's like asking how man races someone has won or lost... 0 or none is an option there

Does it count if someone hit YOU while you were driving it? If so, then one for me.

0 means nothing here because I am not trying to get a count of car imported. That is a known (guessed) number.

Yes, even if it was hit buy a meteor while parked at the local Pizza Joint... As long as you were in posession at the time.
