Sheeeeet I feel like my Z can handle "emergency maneuvers" way better. That goes for sharp quick turns, braking, and accelerating without downshifting.

You should not be lusting until fully recovered Booger.

Glad you are OK and I didn't like those red mirrors anyways lol. Good luck with your next purchase.

Glad to hear you are mending.
I am still waiting for the white fit I ordered back in Feb, picked white for sun reflectivity and visibility, oops, visibility maybe in question. Daylight headlights don't do much as I told a friend yesterday when his corvette was backed into while waiting at redlight by driver in front of him. Maybe I can mount orange flags;-) and it will make it easier to find in the parking lot.

Mount a taler mast and an orange flag on the antenna. It would look like an RC car. :P

Sorry About Your Fit!!

Sorry to hear about your accident!! Glad you did get checked out by the doc. As having recently lost my Fit to the utter STUPIDITY and LACK OF CONCERN exhibited by a hit & run driver, I feel your pain!! Hopefully, your insurance will treat you right and you can move on!! I'm STILL WAITING for my 2012 Vortex Blue Pearl Sport 5/MT to be delivered!!
In the meanwhile, I bought a '98 Civic DX 5 speed to get around. Amazing how sharp it looks w/ my '07 Fit Sport wheels on it!!!

R.I.P. '07 VBP Sport 5/MT...GONE..but not FORGOTTEN!!

I'm not accepting anything below that amount nor am I buying a replacement Fit with the money.

Glad you're ok BB. and sorry to see this fine car totaled.

regarding if this woman was being blinded by your aftermarket lights--she most certainly was not. she was just a noob driver---and this is coming from a noob driver. she misjudged how fast you were going + how slow she is to get out of the way. i've misjudged this same thing except i was turning into the direction of travel of incoming vehicle, and ended up making them slow down significantly behind me because my Fit was too slow to accelerate from 0 - 60.
