    for that price you can almost get one that someone hasn't crushed on their forehead

    could be a high cost locost donor though

    Except who knows where the engine is at this point. Somewhere near the ashtray?

    it may require thorough cleaning of the upholstery as well. blood, brain matter and fecal matter can leave unsightly discoloration on most materials.

    Wow. An RX8 can really take a hit. Is it my imagination, or is the gearshift lever snapped off?

    Nope, they're just really short. That one may have an aftermarket SSK on it though.

    I like the notes on the driver's window. Ugh.

    I don't think it is snapped off, but it isn't in its proper position either. Its almost hidden in the folds of the boot like a frightened turtle.

    I would bet that the engine/trans has moved and the whole trans is lower than it should be, or the floor pan has distorted.

    That would make sense. It definitely looks like the engine has moved
