Update on situation... I'm pretty much getting the royal treatment from her Insurance company, but I am having no luck with cars this week!!
The first rental car they provided for me was a Hyundai Elantra.
.
. I brought it home, parked it for five hours, came outside and IT HAD A FLAT!!! They replaced it with a pretty sweet focus ZX5 (yes, I just used sweet and focus in the same sentence). The focus is brand new, fully loaded, with leather everything and a 6 disc MP3 CD changer.
As for my car, the preliminary estimate is almost $4000, and if there's any more damage when they do the tear down it might get totaled
The exhaust took a direct hit so they're worried about the impact traveling all the way to the engine and working some disastrous magic.
For those that are interested, here are some old pics of the car pre-accident, in all its ragtop glory.
I should know by tomorrow if the car is totaled or not.
