The Death of OP's Subaru

Post by OP »

Two non-english speaking doods hit the rear side panel of my ride. Didn't look serious but the insurance just wrote me a check for the market value.

I bought it new in 2010 for 22.5. Insurance gave me after deductible 19.5. I feel this is a pretty big loss as they wont consider the HG rack i had built.

During the WRE and Nationals I bought extra insurance to the max. I kept it in place. Lucky for me.

Here is it's last moments of life: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBcC8zqNjKk

Beem, they offered me the old whip for only 3K. Should have taken it.

I'm looking at the new WRX Subaru. For 40K you get 300hp; but it wouldn't make a good glider car. Anyone got a glider transporter for sale?

Yeah, Opie, I've got a great little Bronco II to sell for $12,000 (about the price of a new LiteSpeed RX). Rack included.
