Ok Terry, I know I am going to get hell from you about this because neither car was red but it still was on a Tues! That is 6 now on Tues (mostly in red cars). I made sure the rental I got wasn't red. I got a BRIGHT blue PT Cruiser which happens to be the type I hit. She made a left hand turn in front of me. (no woman driver comments) Because when I hit the cross walk the light turned yellow, it is 20% my fault. Unbelievable.
 
Thankfully it was not the Vette. If it was, I would be emailing from jail for murder.
 
Pretty, isn't it?

Good to hear!

Car don't look too bad, but it'll prolly cost $3000 to fix if it's gonna be an insurance deal... Otherwise, $1200 would be closer...

You have to ask Mike how my baby is because he has it. I brought it down there a little over a month again and I miss her so bad. I have visitation rights but it is a 2 hours drive there. Saw him at Vettefest today. He was buying some parts or her.
