Holy crap!!! I didn't read all 6 pages yet, but you should post up your PayPal so those of us who haven't yet contributed for your work can do so now, and hopefully eliminate some of the financial burden. Glad you're ok!!

As the whole community, I feel very sorry for your car but as we all need to remember to not drive ahead our possibilities, accident happens, we also need to remember that life, and still on your feet has no price!!!
Obviously I will deeply regret if the community lose an EVO-GURU but I am sure you will seat in another Evo one day.
I am sure you and your girl have been thru a scary movie this day but let the time works... You have a lot of friends here and I'd like to think it's the same story that when you first fall from your kid's bicycle! You just need to first get over, then get confident and after a while you will be looking for wheeling! Thanx Tephra for all your work and my very best wishes for you anyhow!

Obviously... Though it kinda proves that the 2 star crash rating is indeed a bad joke

Glad you're still with us

On a side note, you may want to change the description in your sig...I'm pretty sure that audm yellow IX isn't in your driveway now
Nah I'm just messing around, you have life and that's what's important
