    First, get a copy of the police report, second go to a hospital, 3rd get those bills too, 4th go see a chiropractor, next, find a lawyer, after that, get anything else he/she needs, and sue the crap out of his insurance company, i'm in the process of doing that after a car 'accident' last July and we're still doing paperwork and trying to pin down the insurance company.

    Hope you're in better shape than I was, 500mg of Hydrocodine, muscle relaxers, on top if about 1200mg of ibprofin or however you spell it, I was dead to the world for 3 weeks.. out of work etc.

    Hope you get better, and can get the car better! Best of luck.

    Damn, that's a shame man. Glad you're okay though, that's the main thing. You planning on picking up another 3rd gen anytime soon?

    Are you ok? the driver was arrested right? Normally i'm not a fan of suing, but I have no sympathy for drunks, so sue away
