So much for that....
typically I don't park in the street either! I do have a parking lot behind my house, but my roommates had the parking passes that night.

I live and work in Philadelphia, and am able to ride my bike to work unless I'm travelling. I rode in that morning and thought to myself that I should probably move it so it doesn't get hit. Sure enough I come home to that

Thinking about selling this car, for whatever price. I found another one in an identical color, very clean, for a reasonable price.

This one has 100k more miles than mine lol. Should i just bite the bullet and buy a new one? The body looks very clean

Hard to believe that the passenger door won't open. Won't open at all, or are the hinges bent? Doesn't look like that much damage.

Opens about 4-5" at most. The way the door and fender is bent is causing interference between the two.

If you want another one I say do that, and keep this one for parts. If you plan to keep an LS you will need parts.
