I own a Rx8. And i've been crushed...
Greetings everyone! I finally picked up a 07' Galaxy Gray Rx8. I love the car even though its my first rotary. Actually its my first brand new car ever. Double cherry popping right there. Iv so far put 300 miles on it in 2 days and loving every moment of the car. My dad thinks its a girls car, but than he is into modern muscle. My mother thinks I should give it to her (sorry!). My sister keeps asking did I really need a new car as a ***** extention? (family...)
I love the humm of the rotary and the handling of the car. Sexy lines just like a women.
So i've been crushed. Today I was going to the dealership to sign one more piece of paper we forgot about and setup my final inspection/change plugs. Picked up my dad at his house and we headed off 3-5miles to the dealership. Less than a mile away at a red light I stopped 2 cars back behind a big F350whatever. Light went green, truck lifted the brake and started to roll. I pulled the clutch till I felt it grab than saw the truck slow down again. Maybe the car infront of him stalled? Than without warning, BAAM My head smacks the back of the head rest and in the rear view mirror is a car up my ***.
I havent wanted to cry since I was a little kid, but OMG. I looked over the damage and in the other lane is a Eclipse with two smoking hot girls 18-22yrs old. They could have made this experience better by giving me a sempathy boob shot. So cops show up and we look over damage. Nothing that will make you sob, but enough to know that my 8 is been *** packed prison style. Her car just had a bent liscenes plate. My damage was okay. Just cracked some of the glass bumper but the foam core behind it is for sure dead. Time for a new bumper!
Here are some pictures, but nothing you havent seen before with a stock 8. Im more of a lurker than a poster so I will be here nor there.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the car.
Sorry you got hit and I hope it gets fixed ASAP. Good luck!
When you get comfortable with the handling take your dad for a spirited drive.

Looks like it's time for an MS rear bumper!
My hot coworker dinged my passenger door right on the crease today when leaving work. I have Galaxy Gray too so it's kinda obvious, but nothing a paintless dent removal place can't handle. If she gave me a sympathy boob shot I'd call it even. She insisted on paying for it though. Oh well.

Giving my dad a spirited ride. Thats kind of hard since hes used to 650hp turbo cars that are high 10 second street cars at 130-135mph in the 1/4. Plus he grew up around stock car racing at the local speedways. Maybe he'll enjoy my cloud on wheels.
WoW, yes. High Warlord Orc Shammie yes. SSC clear, Al'ar dead, Kel wipe city. Than I transfered. Also not a ebay HWL, self grinded doh!
Picture of girls. I wish! I was more worried about my car than to dive to the glove box to take their picture. Ill make sure that I try to keep the party cam close by just for you!
Only good news to the end of the day is her insurance is paying for my new bumper so +++.

It's a new car, somethings gotta happen. Same thing happened to me, only the damage was a little more severe and it happened several months after I got the car.

wow that friggin blows 
My car before this one, a bmw 540i was rear ended before i had even owned it 1 day on the freeway by a guy staring at his kid in the backseat. It was heart breaking.
