finally some real good newS!

Since the car was brand new, all the parts were on back-order.
But finally got news from my shop that the parts are coming in
this thursday and the car should be ready by this weekend!
The real good news was that my mechanic told me that if the
car doesnt drive right after the repairs, i can take it back to the
shop and they could take a look at it again. But if they cant see
the problem the insurance company will have to buy back my car
and i could exchange it for a new one.

lol i am having the "waiting for the Z is almost unbearable" moment
all over again.

I've never heard of this, but I hope it works out. I absolutely would never take the car back. This is how I lost two second generation Eclipse GSXs (rear-ended and someone running a stopsign). Even if it drives fine, get a new car. You'll thank yourself later even if you are just excited to get the car back now. That's the best advice I can give ANYONE.
