Might I humbly suggest the 450h Black Line F Sport Edition? The paint scheme makes it easier to sneak up on the tree - especially if you're under battery power.

Nothing to part out, there were no mods, insurance will write me a check on the agreed value and move on with life

Safety features absolutely did their jobs

Actually had the black/red one before, wanted to try something different, will probably end up looking for a white with glazed interior again, it looks very refreshing

Wow! That sucks! Happy to hear everyone is okay. It held up well. I guess I’ll keep my eyes on eBay for some used parts. Specifically those tail lights.
