Default 6 years, 1 month, and 25 days....

Well i've had great luck with the car. Its gone through two owners, my brother then me and even he didn't have that much seat time in the ITR (7 months) to really learn it's potential. Drove to my 8am class this morning and BANG she hit me. I gotta give her credit though she did try to avoid me since I saw her swerve. Here's the damage. Not too bad and it could have been worst. I've been avoiding accidents for a long time now and now that I'm in the process of selling the car this $hit happens. There goes my sale...

As far as I can see, the only parts that have been damaged visibly is the bumper and the trunk skirt panel. I hope they can match up the paint to the rest of the car :-\

So now I ask. Fix her and keep her or fix her and put her back up in the market.... AGAIN....

Here are the pics.

Sorry to hear that it happened when you were trying to sell. Could have been much worse though. Doesn't look like it got into the rear quarter at all. Pretty easy fix. Good luck with it.

I had meant 5 years not 6. I love the car and I had plans for it in the future and its weighing heavily in my mind now... We'll see when it gets out of the bodyshop.

November 30, 2000 as a 2001 model. Sigh.....

I tried to get a shot of the hottie that hit me though and all my phone could come up with was this without me looking at her :-\

I was going to ask how 6 years was possible. Lucky you getting yours in 2000.

As far as the damage, I've seen a lot worse.

Yeah its not all that bad honestly but its the fact that i've kept her accident and dent free for so long that this bitchslap to my car kinda ruined the good streak considering all other ITR issues that is always posted on here daily. I thought i'd keep her as virgin for as long as possible but I guess its impossible to do that with an ITR lolol

I wish it would have been a slight front end fender bender honestly, as sick as that is. lol

God lets you borrow his chariot and you want to run off and try to make a few bucks with it.
