Nope, mine is Pearl White. Though I do live pretty close by, I have yet to see a Nismo 370 in the area...

Oh, and my Nismo has been parked at Special Interest Autobody for the last week while Geico gets their **** together!

Weekend before last we had a bit of light rain - got turned around and hit a curb pretty hard. I got off pretty lucky as it was all fairly low speed. However, the passenger side airbags fired, so thats gonna cost...

Here's a couple pics:

Note the odd angle the rear wheel has...you can see what bent in the next pic

Ouch, those links used to be straight. Actually the camber arm (the black one) is designed with a kink in it so that it will give in the case of a crash.
