Sad part is that the frame might be bent, i got a estimate on the car from a body shop which i know really well, they gave me a rough estimate of 6k with labor. That was the estimate just by looking at the car not taking it apart. The work van that caused this has a few scraches on his plastic bumber and its a bit bent.

Lol the plate is staying. Im not going to lie and say i get 17mpg i get 9-11 mpg average, the car might get fixed but the frame is damaged so might have to be Totaled. Cant say for sure but if worse come to worst, im might havet to try and find a real 4dr sports sedan.

I love the car for what it is, a big powerful lux sedan with VSC/OFF button for some fun but thats about it, but its not a "sports" sedan. Whats sucks the most is that i have K&N air intake on the way and i have a box of new df210 sitting in my garage. :
