Default Sad day. Some one hit me.

Only had the car 2 months. Was in the intersection waiting to turn right and I started to turn when a truck ran the red light and hit me. He was going so fast he almost spun me in a 360. He hit my front and then spun me around to the point the back of my car hit the back of his. Amazing cars, i walked away with no problems. Strange that no airbags went off!

That's unfortunate. Good thing you are okay. Cars can be replaced, people can't.

I'm surprised the airbag didn't go off. Looks like the car took all the damage. Glad your OK though, its probably a total loss.

oh man, glad you walked out of there safe. Your car looked mint, What are your plans for a car now? Sue the asssshole for emotional and physical pain, see your chiropractor, get some physical therapy, and then use your insurance settlement to buy an LFA? Sounds like a great idea, I say do it.

The insurance totaled it. Looking for another now. Want to find a Spectra blue, but cant find one any where. Sucks cause I got it from the original owner and he had a folder with all the lexus receipts for all the work done. Want another 400 or 430. Anyone know of someone selling a Spectra blue?

That car looked pretty clean. Can't believe the airbags didn't deploy.
