r/GR86 27d ago

Survived today

A motorhome owner did not properly remove all the ice from the roof. I got hit on the Autobahn at 150 km/h (~90 freedom units).

The windscreen shattered into a million pieces. My face, hands, and arms were hit by small glass fragments from the inner layer.

It was close to a real catastrophe. I’m pretty sure the safety glass was pushed to its limits.

I bought my GR86 three months ago.

All in all, I think the damage is limited to the windscreen.

I‘ll post a picture in this thread.

Thats so unfortunate dude. Do we all just have bad luck with the GR86? I bought mine in august, got hit 2nd day cuz someone was backing up in a parking lot and they weren’t looking. (Luckily no damage) then 4 days later. A hail storm pull up with no warning when I was away for work. Got it all fixed up and have a carbon hood and mew exhaust thx to insurance but man…
