Tragedy... the SS got hit!

Luckily, it wasn't very bad. As most of you know, this car is my baby. It stays in the garage most of the time, and I always park miles away from people, and do my best to avoid scary people when driving. It is a 2002 Camaro SS, and has only 15,500 miles on it. I have put around 4,000 on it since I bought it 4 years ago. Show car. Perfecto. Absolutly pristine...

Well, as I'm SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY waiting to pull out on my (often busy) street, the traffic begins to slow, because someone is turning left up past my house. Well, a guy in a Ford Bronco was paying no attention, and didn't notice everyone stopping until WAY to late. His hit his brakes, and swerved to his right, off the road, into my driveway, over my mailbox, and his REAR BUMPER scraped the front of my car. I had seen this all about to happen, but didn't have nearly enough time to put the car in reverse and move. So on the bright side, its just plastic damage, nothing structural. But its just sad :(. SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY.

Luckily this guy actually has insurance, unlike the lady who hit my other camaro 1.5 years ago. So, his insurance of course is paying for the repair -- and, a new mailbox, yay! I was actually going to get new mailbox this year anyway -- so now it is free. Doesn't quite make up for the pain of my toy, but, it is just a toy.

so, if you have a strong stomach, see the tragic damage below ;-)
