Yeah, I got the car last Friday and Sunday morning it got backed into while parked. Anyways, I dropped it off at the body shop yesterday at 2pm and at 5pm today I called them and they said the Progressive agent would stop by tomorrow morning. I had to leave my car at the body shop so a Progressive agent could stop by when he feels like it...

Now all I can do is look at the pictures I took of it

Instead, for a rental car while mine is being fixed, I have a baby blue PT Cruiser

Bad move on leaving it there, at this moment it is being ragged on by the two grease monkeys from Ferris Bueller's Day Off...

Wow that totally sucks I hope that it all works out. It's not as bad as my car though. I got it back from Apex motorsports in San Jose California. The next week, it got keyed. And I'm not talking about little scratches. I mean like they carved and put some emotion into it. I didn't see my car for 6 months. They drove it like crazy. Luckily I sued them. We won. Got our money back. And it got repainted again. Much better and no extra miles. I hope that it all works out..

OMFG I cannot take this any longer... ALL f'n day long I just kept thinking about my Cobra and the fact that I will not get it back from the body shop until tomorrow

People at work kept coming up and asking me; "where is this mythical Cobra?"

And the worst thing of all: IT WAS 68 DEGREES TODAY I could have put the top down...

No, no, no Killy! You want cooler air, not warmer! Screw the vert action man... You now own a supercharged car and you want cool temps because then you make significantly more powah!!!
