So long little buddy

My 07. Owned since new, 144k troublefree highway miles, ran like a little top till the very end. My wife was driving it when a dumbass made a kamakazi left at the last minute in front of her. She barely had time to make an attempt for the brake pedal. My loyal little car is toast but it repaid it's TLC by making sure she walked away.

Nice to see the doors still intact after a hit like that. Shows good crash protection.

Glad she was ok.
