it was fixable, but seemed easier to buy a new one since i was getting shafted on the intrest rate, that was 12/16/2009


car was broken into and some of my **** was stolen, i was going to work the next day and the tire "magically" blew out... the toe guy had to wench out two trees that were up in the car. the quarter panel was knocked into the trunk, and the whole rear tire was visible from the rear. the rear bumper and left tail light trashed, the roof flexed, and and the front end was smashed pretty good...

a buddys dad said he wouldnt want the car back so i took his advice and got him to get it totaled...

so im currently collecting parts lol
