My wife totaled two cars. She hit a car and that car hit another car in front of it. She said the car she hit looked like an accordion. The force was so great that the bulb located in the bumper of our car had the filament bent back 90 degrees. I replaced the bumper and the struts for about $125. The car ran fine. We finally sold the car but I would have sightings of our car around town for over a decade afterwards. I used to get 27 MPG out of it but I've never gotten more than 20 MPG from my other cars. That must have been the most wonderful car ever.
