My wife used her 940T to fill her buck tag last year. She was going at least 65 mph when she bagged the big forked horn. Damaged parts were hood, grill, grill supports, radiator, AC condenser, intercooler, water pump, timing belt cover, air box, head light assemblies, turn signals, upper radiator hose, radiator supports on both sides, engine splash pan, and charcoal canister and bracket. I probably forgot something. The fenders were pushed about one inch apart at the front. I think I spent about $600 to repair the car. It took several months to find all the correct parts cheap. It drives fine, and everything works. I told her not to drive at night near Kahlotus, WA. The accident happened 300 miles from our home. I rented a tow dolly to retrieve the car.

The picture below shows the car today. It was a lot of work to repair.
