The curse of the white Bonneville is somewhat of a BC.com urban legend. A few of our members who own, or who have owned white Bonnevilles have been involved in accidents (caused by other people). Drifter and Acid are two members that come to mind off hand

Sol, Driverjohn and Andy_Green are doin OK

Sol actually had an accident. Someone rearended him and caused over $2500 in damage. It wasn't totalled like a couple other'* have been though, so he lucked out.
