My finger hoovered over the title and was dreading what I was about to read. Thank goodness it was just your baby car. Hope the insurance cough up a good price.

Really sorry to see this,

Did the guy fall asleep then accelerate? That's quite an impact.

They guyvssid he was not moving fast but he pushed my car from the curb to the middle of the road so I suspect he accelerated as his foot relaxed. Damage is bad way more than I would want to deal with but saying that the back door did open and shut. Friend are saying they want parts so I might buy it back to brake up depending what the insurance want.
