My Car Go Boom

I was driving last night. I was heading down our main street. I was coming up to a busy intsection. Thats all i remember. I woke up in the hospital this morning. Apparently some guy named juan was eating and ran a red light. I dislocated my ankle and had a sever concusion. My baby is totalled. The paint wasnt the best but i put pos rear end in and i had just put ehaust and a tune up completed. I go look at my car and the back window shattered. My bumber is touching my accessories. To top it off, my 300 dollar mp3 pioneer cd player was stolen. Ill get pics as soon as i can. Im kinda having a hard time getting around

Sorry to hear that. But think about it this way. Have you ever wanted a super sweet FD? Well you can afford one now once your lawyer gets through with him . I am glad you are alright.

Hope the guy was insured.

Look at it this way, waking up in a hospital with your cd player stolen is better than waking up duct taped to a desk with your legs shackled to the legs of the table, and your ******* stretched to a size nine, bleeding, and the slight echo of "dueling banjos" playing over a loudspeaker.

Glad you're ok. Consider yourself lucky (kind of). I work as a paramedic, and I have seen some really nasty t-bones. Look at it this way... You could have been in a first gen... or worse... a miata.

My NA was taken from me too, this stupid girl in a neon lost control on a turn and slamed right into my drivers door. This happend just after a new paint job and body work. At the time it sucked but with the money I got from that I was able to save and get my TII. Hopefully you'll be able to do the same.
