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?

Yeah, just some sore muscles. Nothing Vicodin can't take care of.

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.
