Oh silly, silly OP, women can't drive stick! Even if they could they would be too busy texting while driving and/or distracted yapping on the phone.

Scraped the front lip pulling into the parking lot. So much for dropping it an inch or two.

Dumb driver who didn't slow down on a fairly large drop off at the entrance. Can't blame the car for the driver I laughed when she did hit it though.

The ground clearance of these cars is plenty high IMO.

That should be good for a $1000 discount from MSRP due to the damage! Everyone make sure you check your front lip for scrapes and use that as a bargaining tool!

If it's a pre-production model, it will just go in the crusher once they are done showing it off.

I always do that, except I just make them repaint it if I were to ever find damage like that. The cars I've bought new have always been low to the ground, at best the same height as this but usually lower.

Can't watch this now since I am at work but if it is a SWP out in the wild I will definitely be watching when I get home.
