Default Vortex Blue 2001/ might be totalled

I am so sad. My son was rear ended Sat night and pushed into an old truck in front of him. I am trying to post a photo here with no success.

We are still waiting for the verdict if he is a gonner. It was a hit and run. The only good thing is that the license plate of the car that hit him was imprinted on the rear bumper. I think there will be an arrest.

We want the car fixed, it is a sweet 1.8 turbo, heated leather seats, and the awesome smell of crayons.........

AAWWW! Vortex Blue is my favorite shade of blue for NBs - so sorry this happened! Thank God your son is o.k. Why don't people pay attention when they are driving?!

People are such idiots. I hope the bad guy is caught.

Thankfully, your son is OK. Despite our love for our cars, that is the most important thing.

Oh NO!! Glad to hear your son is ok. I hope they catch the driver & nail his a** to the wall. If they total it find out if you can get parts off it first. Some black interior pieces alot of people are looking for.
