Thanks alot for the support guys. I just saw the topic today. Yes I did get in a wreck last week on friday. I guess I will tell you about it. I was taking my girlfriend home minding my own business and I took an old back road home. I like this road cause it is only a two lane road and their are alot of twisties. Anyway I had a blow out in my rear tire that drove me into on coming traffic. I swerved to miss a truck and landed in a ditch. The ditch is really steep and since the car is so small it rolled over 2 and a half times. Some how we both walked out. I got a cut on my wrist and my left leg kinda swelled up. My girlfriend got a cut on her nose. Besides that we are fine. The car however is not. It hasnt been declared but I think it is totaled. Even the paramedic freaked out as he was checking me out. He would look at the car and loose interest in me. Then when he discovered it was an rx-7 he flipped. He was telling me how hard it is to find them and junk that I didn't want to hear. Anyway..thanks for asking about me and I hope to be driving another seven as soon as I get my money from the insurance.

thought u were sellin her cuz the car was too much for you..
No...that one was. I am gonna buy one as a daily driver. That one was already modified and it wasn't what I thought I was looking for. I am looking at an automatic with more miles then the first one. It is also about 6k less then the first one.

Yeah it is just one of those thing everybody has to go through at least once. I am just glad I got it out of the way at a young age and I didn't get hurt
Trust me. When you are flipping over in your seven alot goes through your head! The first thing I said was "God...If I get through this I am going to buy a civic!". It wasn't until that I realized I was ok until I started thinking clearly again!
But I think I will be afraid the first time I get in another seven.
Oh...By the way. Insurance allowed me a rental car for a month. Its a saturn! Took me a while to start it since the whole time I was looking for the clutch. I do miss the 5spd....ALOT!! And most of all I miss the feeling of moving when I press on the accelerator. I now feel sorry for my friend who races his Saturn. Those things are slow!!!!!!!!
no such thing as too much. God i hope I could get to that point, i wanna be scared everytime I get in !
