My kids and I were in the car and we are all ok....Thanks!

Well its a long story but here it goes! I had just got done picking up the kids and we were head to our new house that is being built to take some pics. I was merging right onto a exit ramp when this blue car blew the light and muscle his way down the merg lane. By the time I seen him all I could do was hit my brakes and jerk the wheel to my right, well the back end of the GS swung out to the left. I tried to correct it but I hit the curb(there went the back left rim) then on top of that after the curb it was a incline so the carstarted to slid down the incline and hit some big rocks(there went the bottom of the car and the right rim)! The back of the body kit is busted I have half of it in the garage the other half still on the car. I will post the pics I took in awhile.

Sorry to hear about the car, but happy to hear the family is alright and no one got hurt. The car will eventually be back to its old self. Perhaps an upgrade to the 840 series is in order
