Well a couple of days later i had got an estimate of $840, i called her and told her to come over so she can see the estimates, when she saw it was $840 she basicually just laughed in my face and walked away, I tried reporting it to the cops later but because i didn't call the cops the day it happened they said they were not gonna do ****, and the lady basicually just told me "Oh well it was your fault for standing behind me" (Like if its my fault?) and i had to pay for the damage myself.
What a Biatch! Take her to court...also purestang, glad you are ok, that looked like a hard hit judging by the frame...

yea...if he doesnt pay that price....were going to get him to pay the dealer price +tax.....and if he doesnt.....insurance is getting involved......

on another note...i just test drove a MACH I......biggest piece of S*** ever....the windshield was cracked.....there was stuff in the back(cleets, clothes, pictures, etc.) the clutch was really hard and it popped everytime i changed from 1st to 2nd.....the tires were bald...and the interior was dirty....N THEY WANTED 19,900 FOR IT!!!! my opinion it was not worth the money

Dont buy that mach 1 it sounds like its on its last leg. I say look hard for a cobra. The 03 would obviously be the best but any 4 valve would be better than a 2 valve. Or just buy a low mileage 99-04 2 valve and put a supercharger on it.
