RE: Wreck ... Already
@rneely2111 - It's not my fault in the least. Although the insurance company keeps asking me and all of my witnesses what happened. Guess it's hard to believe that someone would back into you getting on the interstate. Who woulda thunk it? At least the guy that hit me admits it, although he has been ignoring the insurance companies phone calls. Had to trick him today by calling from my phone and putting the insurance agent on. He wasn't happy.
Also, his birthday (according to her) is 4/16/91 ... So that makes him what, 17? Good thing I was calm(ish).
On a happier note - the insurance adjuster LOVED my car. She wouldn't hush about it.
Time to mod this sucker.
Man, the curb was all me. But that rim's getting changed out by the dealer anyway for a new one.
This one - not my fault at all. Same as my only other wreck. Someone else backed into me, except that time in the 2002, and that time there was $1,871.52 in damage. Happened Oct. 21, 2005. One year to the day that I had the car.
Maybe this car is bad luck?

Thank God it wasn't too bad. Me, Jeremy (Jthorn9) and 2 friends went to get our cars dyno'd ... (I only pulled 240 hp, 260 tq ... J pulled 187 hp, 251 tq. Ha. But it was 100 degrees and 26% humidity). So, we leave there, and go eat at Chili's ... Get the discount ... Go to leave Baton Rouge to head back to New Orleans and get ****ty. In the lane to merge on the interstate. I'm the 2nd car. The guy in front of me went halfway through the first lane, stopped, and kicked it in reverse ... I guess thinking he didn't have the time, to avoid a collision. I didn't ask. So he basically floors it backwards in his 2001 Accord, I lay on the horn, he destroys the front of my car. Many obscenities were shouted from my end, but everyone calmed me down. I've never seen someone so scared in my entire life. Get out to check the damage, and the front bumper is tore up from the floor up. The passenger front quarter panel is inside the hood. We're looking at a decent amount of $, and a wreck on its history report.
Great.
No injuries, I spared his life.

@ Renegade: Will do. I have a feeling it'll be a bit too expensive though, so I'm thinking either stock or GT/CS

If it was that real to me, the numbers would be 271.2 - 283.2 hp, 293.8 - 306.8 tq on a Mustang dyno.
