Ouch, just needs to have the front fixed, and it'd be one nice car.

Looks like he hit a deer going to the car show. Looks like it was a nice car anyway.

That's what happens when ya park next to a Ford...the rust and dents jumps off them and lands on your nice GM car. Only thing worse would have been if he'd parked next to a Chrysler!

I sure hope that was meant to be funny... If the owner thinks it is a show car, he or she obviously needs to attend a few shows and take note of what is there.

MetalliCamaro, how do you like the Ravin sound? I kinda like it for my V6 but I dunno how it sounds on a bigger engine.

I love it, it pops when I step on it sometimes, but I think thats cause my cat is bad. If you wanna hear what it sounds like, check out my webpage. The link is in the sig. I have 4 videos under the multimedia section. Plenty to come in the spring after I put my intake on and possibly headers cause I'll have a new digital camera.

That sounds really nice, how'd you record that? Just a digital camera? I'd like to record mine but I can't really find a good way to do so.
David

:edit: Those pops sound bad, I'd be freaking out if my car did that, thinking I broke something.

Maybe the guy just wanted to see the car show, but got in accident on his way there and accidently parked in with the show cars.
