Childseat, Test Drive, Crash

I preordered a car back in Jan, and our city received one floating tester car (manual ultramarine, same as what I ordered).

Test drive scheduled yesterday, arrived with my kids and seat.

Seat is a sunshine kids front facer, big, but narrow - one of the few Canada legal seats that fit in a 911. USA has a recaro unit that also works, but not certifited up here.





I am 5'7" with a 29.5 inch inseam. I had to move 1 click up where I would be on a long highway trip. I was comfortable for driving in the city. She loved the ride and did not complain at all during the test drive.

The guys that took out the car after me, drifted into a corner and broke the front suspension as well as banging the rear wheel. So now no other test drives at any of our dealers for 2-3 weeks while another car is brought in.

Not a good taste of insurance claims to come. YOU ARE NOT INITIAL D on a test drive!

I will be heading over to see the crashed car this weekend and will post some pictures for you to weep over.
