Default Farewell cobra. :(

Drivers out here suck
I Think i got all of the language out. Sorry if i missed a word or two.

@#$% teenage drivers that talk on the phone and drive. Yep i said it. I'm sick of seeing all these @#$% "accidents" Where you can @#$%@# well tell that it was a young person talking on the god @#$%@$ phone or texting some of their stupid @#$%@ friends and slamming into the god @#$%% person in front of them. I swear to god the next "accident" i see like this I'm going to stop my vehicle get out slap the @$%@ out of whoever caused the "accident". And this also goes for people that put make up on, eat and drive, conduct orchestras with their hand while they are talking to people, basically anything that greatly puts others in danger when you drive.

Anyway on with the story,
So we got rid of the viper and got a 2003 cobra. Well we had some mods done to it and man this thing was a beaut See Image1. Well the other day the father was sitting at a light and some #@$% on a phone or some ****, I'm not sure what he said she was doing, slammed into his rear end. When i first asked him about it it did not sound like she was going that fast but today when i talked to the claims and him it was way worse than we thought. See Image 2. The rear end is worse i just could not find the pic i took. The rear end sits higher and on both sides of the car there is a good sized crease in the middle of the fender. I'm guessing the frame is tweaked upwards. As you can tell the front is not pretty as well. The clutch was fried so I'm assuming the Exhaust and drivetrain were slammed forward into the tranny and engine as well. Needless to say from what I'm hearing the @$^%@# car is totaled. What a@#$%@#$% waste of a car.
