thanks a lot, man.involved in accident with pedestrian? wtf?! LOL. hey at least there was no damage. once my car gets out of the shop, i may or may not decide to sell it. this is one of the possibilities for a replacement. we'll see though. thanks again, man.

edit: just realized something... the car changed ownership a few days after the accident with the pedestrian... did the owner get thrown in jail or sued and needed money or something? hm... if i buy this car, i could be driving around in a previously used assault weapon.
