Default One less LSX car on the road

She was fun to drive until a kid in a Scion XB hit her going 50 MPH and I'm at a complete stop.

Hopefully 2008 will have better things in store for me.
Happy New Year everyone

Sorry that someone hit your ride.

It looks like a perfect donor for another project! You should find out what your insurance company will sell it back to you for.

Not to be cynical but at least if it's totalled you get to start the New Year with a new car right? Hope things turn out good for you.

That looks bad, how is your neck and back feeling?

I'm still debating on wht I should get next. That STI sure looks like it got hit a lot harder than me.

New Year = New Car

Back and neck are definately tight and soar, but I am thankful that is all.

Drink one for the V tonight!

Yeah he is VERY lucky, got pretty banged up for sure but thankfully he always wears his seat belt... in fact it broke his whole seat all together. Police estimated the drunk was going about 55 when he nailed my friend at the light.
Just a reminder that those drunk idiots will find you where ever you go.
