Default VA people help a former R owner out.

Well i was involved ina pretty decent car accident the other night. I see no was that my AUDI will not be totaled.
So i need help looking a a new car in FallsChurch VA
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1055664

Here is a pic on how the spare saved the car from complete destruction


It was about 6pm with a light drizzle. Heading to the mall witha buddy. we get to the normal spot where traffic always build ups on a friday at that time. As we come to a stop i for some reason look in my rear view and yell "GET READY" half a second later BAM!!!! I get dominated by a chevy trailblazer and thrown into the car in front of me. She had to be doing atleast 55-60 on impact. If anyone was in the back seats they would have 2 broken legs. Not a single Airbag went off. I got front, side, and rear. Both front seats were disloddged and fully reclined after the impact and we were almost in the back.


Edit:
Just realized i spelled former wrong in the title

what...the....****? glad everythings ok for you though.

Did the woman in the chevy try to run? its always fun to have jackknobs try to run after a serious life-threatening accident

how severe was the accident? Do you have any further pictures?

the fact you mention you were thrown in the rear of the car indicates a serious impact

No she stayed and got it all done. I was on my way to the ER real fast so i don't even know what she told the police. i spent about 3 hours on a backboard and neck brace before i was released. Got tons of xrays taken, but everything turned out real cool. just lots of pain
There were 4 total cars in it. I was put into the car in front of me and that into another.

glad you're ok. make sure you get the money from that other careless driver. there are no excuses for rear ending someone at 50-60.

Sounds like you were very lucky; I would take photos of the seats and file a complaint with the NHTSA, maybe even consult with a lawyer...

Funny thing is I was looking at used type R's the next morning.
Still think I will stick with another Audi hopefully and S4 this time.

That is shitty man.
Hope it works out for the best.

Get an s4, you'll be happy.
A good friend has one and I love to drive it.
