Default My car got hurt bad
My near brand new Graphite Grey Metallic 2011 is350 was involved in an accident. Pictures will be up later.

I was driving down the road next to my apartment and someone had the bright idea to take a left hand turn directly in front of me. The only thing that I could do from T-Boning him was to slam on the brakes and switch lanes where he completely destroyed my front left fender/suspension/and god know what else. Air bags went off. Definitely a very well made car since his Acura TSX had his front bumper in his engine compartment.

I just want my car back

Glad to hear you are OK.

I hate hearing this especially when it happens to a new car.

I am just scared of engine and drive train issues as well as suspension problems if they fix it.

I was so pissed off that I really did not even talk to him. I am scared of what I would do with the amount of adrenaline running through my veins.

Glad you are ok...looks bad, but from what you said it could have been far worse...cars can be fixed, so give it some time and you 350 will be back on the road

That looks like it can be fixed. As long as there's no frame damage or damage that would give you issues later in the future. Hope you get your baby back quickly! It hurts seeing those pics
