I had a Mazdaspeed 6 back in the day. I may or may not have rolled it over into a drainage ditch on some twisties..
That was a real object lesson for me. I thought I knew the car well enough but I didn't know the road well enough.
Thankfully nobody was hurt so I took my lesson and moved on.
Proud to say I haven't wrecked a car since and it's been well over ten years since the day I had to say goodbye to the speed 6.
I miss that car. It was a black, fully loaded grand touring model and got absolutely ZERO attention (except from people who knew what it was). FBO with a tune made it an absolute blast to drive.
My current fun car draws a lot more attention (particularly from young guys lol)
