Hey guys,
I picked up roadster #506 about three weeks ago. Last week, it was involved in an unfortunate accident with a motorcycle. Best news is the motorcyclist had absolutely no injuries. A car can be replaced, but a person can not.
Basically, I was making a left turn out of a parking lot. There were three cars with their turn signals on to make a right turn into the parking lot. I could see no other traffic either way, visibility was good, unfortunately there was a motorcycle hugging very closely to the turning cars, and we collided once I turned out in front of the other cars.
My car is now in the shop, and i've been quoted $11,000 for the repair. Luckily, I have insurance which is covering everything but $1000 (my deductible). I've also requested to upgrade to the 2011 front bumper and was quoted an additional $1000 for the extra labor for the duct work. For that price I am definitely interested. The unfortunate part is that they state the parts are coming from England and could take up to a month.
