I hope you're talking about using acupuncture for the car.

i think he was trying to say that the person who hit you was trying to act cool, but he was acting so cool, he forgot to pay attention, and hit your car...therefore putting your life in danger.

Wow.. not as bad as I imagined it reading the earlier posts.. but still bad nonetheless. I hope everything works out for you. Were you in motion when he hit you? Or were you at a stop?

It's not a factor of People trying to act cool infront of other.. the factor is.. People in Miami DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE... Soo many times I use to drive on I-95.. I would hate it because i'd have to be worried someone wouldn't eat my @$$. Now thank god I don't even have to go anywhere close to it. I feel for you man.. and even if the damage isn't as bad as it sounded STILL HURTS. I feel your pain Always pay attention to the car behind you not soo much of you trying to avoid hitting the one in front of you. If it would have been me I probably would have gotten out of the car so PO'd I would have told the guy to stay in the car if not i would have Kicked his @$$.

The pics don't show the details... I'm not sure how the car absorbed the impact, but I noticed that my top, and driver's side door are now slightly misaligned and crooked.

Yeah I was gonna beat his a$$, but a City of Miami cop witnessed the entire accident (actually he was trying to pull over the guy that hit me at the time for traveling on the left shoulder emergency lane) so i couldn't really have done anything.

Point is after they fix this shit, the car will never be the same. Will this show be on a carfax report and how much can I sell it for now that this happened? I plan to get a '02.

Is this your first wreck? Ass beating, whiplash, selling the car, Carfax. In the end, people have wrecks and this stuff you are worried about doesn't end up being that big a deal.

Take a deep breath and count your blessings. You're car is probably completely fixable. And chances are that it won't be the last time some other person runs into you. And chances are that one won't be such a big deal (in the passage of time) either.
