Glad you were not hurt too bad.
Your accident sounds like the one I had with the Delta, only I had brand new tires and the ahoe cut me out, then stopped (no ABS)

Air bag hurt a lot less than the steering wheel itself, I can guarantee that.

I've had an airbag blow off on me from a crash...I'd much rather take the mild burns than the BFT from the steering wheel.

 Are you serious? Just cause it's turboed and awd doesn't mean it's a good car. I have a couple of friends with gsx and they have nothing but problems.

2011 Eclipse GT looks nice, though I haven't heard anything about it. Looks like they're trying to go with the Nissan GT-R/Lancer Evo styling on the front bumper though...

The only issue I've had with my n/a z is a fuel injector going out, other than that it's been more reliable than my Alero.

Glad you weren't hurt.
To fix follow these simple directions:
1. Lick thumb
2. Apply genorious amounts of spit
3. Place thumb on fender
4. Rub damage out.
Patent pending.

That's not an opinion, it's fact I see, or try to help with almost every weekend.
