Death of a classic

Been forever since I have posted here but figured I had to give my old girl one last hurrah.

20th Anniversay Edition Maxima
Midnight Blue
Manual Transmission
Only 85,000 km and not a spot of rust on her anywhere.

Met her doom yesterday waiting at the light. Oncoming car hydroplaned through the intersection straight into me. Nothing I could do but cry.

On the bright side I walked away with nothing more than a bruised knee. The old girl did a phenomal job protecting me (the other car must have been moving at 70+km/h when he hit me).

This bites low mileage and near perfect mint conditon and a 20th anniversary those are a rare and hard to find if you don't have one now. I am sorry for the loss and pain but your ok. This will hurt for a long time. The idiot in the benz was speeding from the looks of the impact. The police report and the insurance should help you out on this loss. That guy in the benz was a total duech bag needs to get his *** beat. It sucks sorry for the pain bro get another one. Goodluck.

He got hit Head On, Sitting still..His neck or knee may Hurt for ever. I would go get checked out that could be a life time thing, you just don't feel it yet. Always the guy in the Mercs driving like Maniacs. Glad you are Ok, the car can be replaced.
