Wrecked 780 *sniffle* 700

So I was driving along southbound on West Temple crossing the intersection of South Temple (for those familiar with Salt Lake) and BAM, right into the side of some idget stick in a Grand Prix that thought he could make a U-Turn in front of me. I wasn't able to stop and thanks to the city there is cement barriers everywhere so I had nowhere to go. It bent the back passengers rear tire of there car and smashed up that rear panel pretty good. The hood on my car was FUBAR'd, driver's side lights gone, front clip thing (the one that sites in front of the radiator) was bent, grill FUBAR'd metal ring that goes under the lights, transmission let fluid go everywhere (from under the car) and now the shift lever sits back 1-2 inches. The car is currently at Kenn Garff Volvo getting an estimate. People’s carelessness sure is aggravating. I'm sure they will declare it a total given the nature of body parts for that car.

*takes off his hat for his beloved 780* may she rest in peace.
