If it makes you feel better, both of these accidents happened to my STI within 2 weeks of purchasing it.

First one happened in my driveway, neighbor slammed their jeep into it. I think the estimated repair cost was in the $7500 range. It doesn't look too bad in this picture, but it twisted that whole corner. Notice, I dont even have a plate on it yet.



Second one was at a stop light. The lady went to run the yellow, but stopped last second and was out in the intersection. I had a car right behind me, and she started backing up into me. I was honking, but couldnt move without hitting the car behind me, so I just took the hit. I guess I don't have any pictures I can find.


Life goes on! Car was fixed up, and I had no issues selling it for a good amount when the time came!
