She was actually the 3rd car involved, the minivan that caused it all hit a 2012 altima that was behind my wife and pushed it into her car. They were in traffic just inching along when the van ran everybody over. It totalled the middle car. That womans insurance can't be happy about a totalled 2012 and a crunched Corvette. Lucky everybody was ok for the most part. Not sure how fast that woman was going when she hit though. We appreciate everybodys well wishes, thank you.

Funny thing about these cars is the body being a combination of glue and little screws holding them together. Doesn't take long to take apart and they don't look so pretty then.
