edit Sorry about the rickroll topic title. 
Updated 1-6-09
Yeah. Imagine i said something witty here. :(
We both had green but I had the right of way seeing how i was not turning across traffic.
Crappy cell phone pic. It was a '99-00 silver mustang.
I'm fine. Car's driveable. Mustang went home on a flatbed.
darn, I thought this thread would expound on the pluses and minuses associated with the NASA classing structure.
either way, sorry about the car.
(and before anyone else says it, "that'l buff right out")
Last time that happened to us it led to my wife having her spine fused, a piece of cadaver bone and a metal plate being put in her neck. You guessed it the scuzzbags had no insurance.
I guess I'm saying it could be worse
I was just on my way to dinner after visiting the chiropractor.

I could have rick roll'd everyone and posted the ken block video.
I thought this was going to be a thread about something motorsports related. You know, Spec Miata and American Iron.
Damn, that sucks. Glad you're alright.
That's actually exactly how my friend lost his Triumph 2500 saloon to a SUV.
use the insurance money to buy Flyin' Miata parts. 
I HATE those type of signals. How to proceeded though the intersection safely when turning left across traffic is no longer within the mental capacity of the average driver, and they cause too many accidents.
if you think thats hairy, you should have seen houston when half the signals were out and nobody could pull their head far enough out of their arses to negotiate a 4-way stop correctly
Ow, I hope there's no frame damage...
See the Spec Miata, but I'm missing the American Iron....
Left turns suck.

I'm sorry for your wife (and you by extension). That's why I carry LOTS of uninsured motorist coverage - it's cheap and I'll never understand why insurance agents don't sell the crap outta that, they'd sell a lot more insurance overall if they did.
MCarp22 - get to a doctor and get yourself checked out. The car can be fixed a lot easier than you can.

sorry, I really dont even see a spec miata?

It was a joke. You know, the lighter side of life, putting a smile on in the event of an unfortunate situation.
Sorry, I really don't even see how your comment is a question.
That was another joke for you. 
the title said spec miata.
Carson I didnt see you post before now. do you have 2 names?
anyway, I thought it was a post about race cars, my bad
I have a first, middle, and last name.
I was just giving you a hard time.
The miata looks like a spec in relation to a mustang!
hows the church building biz?
any way I wasnt the only person thinking there was a race related topic.
Carp.. I haz parts!

Having just been through this last month I feel your pain. I think I might've turned back around and headed back to the chiropractor for a checkout. My back is finally starting to feel good again. I also am dealing with an uninsured motorist claim, many people recommending I see a lawyer.
At least it's a Miata and you can put it back together for free 
In reply to willy19592:
Willy, I want to apologize, I was having a rough evening and I was kind of taking it out on you. I'm not normally like that.
In reply to Carson:
its all good, in my own way it was a joke back, asking about a spec miata, but my humor is very dry, and doesnt always translate well to the web ;)
Update:
A few licks with a shellelagh and the hood closes again. I also convinced the headlight to aim correctly by unplugging the motor. Managed to strip all 4 screws that hold the headlight lid on.
Who's idea was it to use phillips and not a proper hex head bolt?
Anyhow, I heard from insurance (hannover) today but was stuck on the phone (i work in a call center) and couldn't call them back. We'll see how this ends up working out. The front unibody is pretty well smooshed so it could mean the end for this car.
Sounds like the car can be fix with a little pull (on a frame rack at a body shop) but hwo are you?
That brings back memories of the first time my miata was totalled...
