Default The worst and last day of 2011*
Hello everyone,

First off happy new year to everyone. I hope everyone's holiday went better than mine! A woman ran a stop sign on a major thru street, t-boned and sent me into a tree.

That just sucks, sorry for your misfortune, but glad you're ok, it looks like your safety equipment did what its supposed to. Hope your insurance company treats you right, are you going to get another?

YES! This was the best car I've ever owned, hands down. These cars have such quality to them, not many cars out there have that. She received a ticket for failure to stop at a stop sign, so she will be paying.

Forget the car, be sure to have yourself checked out by a chiropractor since the pain isn't always instantaneous.

I'm hurting really bad. My passenger was supported by the whole door when we hit the tree sideways, whereas the lower half of my body was supported by the center console, and the upper half of my body was bent over the console violently. So I have a really bad strained back, chest, neck, etc lol. It hurts worse than when I dumped my R6 into a ditch. It wakes me up in the middle of night when the hydrocodone wears off, but the doctor said it shouldn't take too long to heal.

Yeah, me too. And I just bought this beauty a few months ago. Still had the protective plastic over the kick plates on the door jambs... you could eat off the floor mats. I also was about to order some 19" wheels for it. I hope I can find another pearl platinum. Such a great car.
