Drew... a moment of silence 850

I just posted a couple pictures on the gallery.

I got a phone call on September 11th stating that I needed to go and check on my car. I was told that a tree branch had fallen on it and broken a window. I didn't expect to drive up and see my baby crushed by a tree! Needless to say the insurance totalled her with over $9,000 of damage. It took me three years to locate here and she will be missed. I gave her a nice cleaning to send off with and took her for a last run around the block. It's amazing.. I couldn't even tell there was anything wrong there was just a little wind noise. Although around 60 I could tell the rear end was a little tweaked out. Not bad at all considering the weight of the tree and how far it fell.

I want to get another one but feel like it wouldn't be right to do so at the moment. Maybe in the spring I'll begin the long tiresome hunt for another.

Why is it so hard to find???
