Well, the Ford decided not to yield for oncoming traffic and preceded to turn in front of us. There was a car on my left and I could not see it. Before the collision all I could hear was the super charger and BANG. I was going about 35-40 MPH. I walked away with no injuries.
The car was a total loss and was estimated at $13,000 to fix.
Here are the pics after it was towed away.
I upgraded to the Dark Slate 3.5SE, I could not leave the A/C family.

Yeah man, these are old I just got around to adding them. I moved up to the 3.5SE but this A/C only had 3000 miles on it.crayzitalian3 wrote:sorry to hear and see what happened. are you ok?

Good that you are ok, on the bright side the lights are already apart to do a projector retrofit.. Looks like your washer fluid survived too .Bretahn J. wrote:

I swear, one of the safest cars on the road. Everything looks to have crumpled where it should have.

This is so true, the insurance company drops the rental car quick after they pay off the car. I had to get into something real quick, plus I got a real good deal on it.super_dn wrote:upgraded to a 3.5? thats whats up son!glad you are okay though, I would of still got a black coupe though.. its just so sexy. imo.

Hell yeah man, there is a big difference between the two. Its even better when you have MT. When I had the 2.5, silly SI's were always trying to run.

It did, they just stuffed it back in there. There is a distinct smell when the airbag goes off. I never want to smell it again.

Yeah, no problem. It smelt like something was on fire and it was real smokey inside. I had the windows up and everything seemed like it was in slow motion, but I had no way of avoiding it. Basically I was just saying, I did not want to be in another accident. I felt really safe, so after it was totaled. I started looking for the 3.5SE.dangeris wrote:
