Another Evo Gone =(

Was on my way home about 1 A.M. on Saturday morning when some lady decided that red lights don't apply to her. By the time I saw her coming into the intersection it was too late. Slammed the brakes and tried to avoid her but it was a lost cause. I jumped out yelling and screaming, needless to say I was pissed. Super bummed. We'll see what the insurance has to say Tuesday but I'm pretty positive it's going to be a total loss. So looks like I'm on the hunt for a GG or AS IX SE.





Here she was Friday afternoon-

How did the lady react to your shouting? I know I would have been the same way. Probably would have punched her. Lol

There were 2 women in the other vehicle, they didn't even get out for a couple of minutes. I jumped out shouting for a good 30 seconds then tried to gain my composure long enough to go see if they were okay. It was a 2011 charger and like 3 of the airbags went off in their car. I made sure they were both okay then walked away before I choked her out. I will probably end up buying it back from insurance then part it out.

Sorry for your loss, this was a nice Evo hopefully they total it out. I wouldn't want to drive it after all that damage.

Those are my thoughts as well. It's just a bummer that I now have to go on the hunt for a clean evo AGAIN, due to another persons negligence. Took me almost 4 months to find Vanessa. I think I'm going to search for a clean, well taken care of GG SE. Found a couple on here already so just waiting on insurance.

There's a place local here called "The Sticker Shop". They custom make any decals you want, any size.

My bro's '03 "Mallory" next to Vanessa.

Hopefully I find another. Really been toying the idea of getting an FD3S, but I like being able to drive the evo in the snow. Just want the insurance to hurry up so I'm not stuck in a "What's going to happen" state.

Another thing that really pisses me off is I picked this one up for a steal. I'll never find another for the price I paid for this one.
