Miatas are perfect starter cars, you have to be stupid dumb to burn the clutch out learning stick in that thing. | |

| So, my brakes went full retard today and I rear-ended a Hummer H3 in my little Altima. By the looks of it, the car might be written off as totaled. It won't start at all and the steering and brakes won't budge. On the bright side, nobody was injured or killed in the incident. Picture of the damage:  | |

| But of all the things I could have hit, why was it a Hummer and not a Prius?  | |

| When I first read "The brakes went full retard" I thought "Don't blame the car for your mistakes"... then I remembered this is real life lol. Scary stuff! Hope it doesn't phase you. My car has some pretty dodgy brakes too and this happening to me is a real fear now I think I'll finally stop being an idiot and buy new brake pads now. | |

| Let me be a lesson: defensive driving isn't BS.
That said, the car hasn't been checked yet and I have forms to fill out. | |

| So the insurance guy came back...
The car's totaled.
It was such a great little machine, though...I can at least be happy that it sacrificed itself to save me. | |

| Update: New car.. I have a feeling there may be some police cruiser in it...   2005 Chevrolet Impala 3.4 liter V6 180 HP 205 FT-LB ~3500 LBs 4-Speed automatic Cyber Gray Metallic exterior Tan interior Hubcaps not alloys -.- Final retail price: $3,800 I like the car, it's got an old school interior! My dad swears that it reminds him of his old Buick Regal, and it's just so accessible. It has just that nice little touch of sportiness, too and it's very easily upgradable so I might do that once I pay off the remaining loan on it. | |

| @Koolaid would you consider the Impala a sports car? | |

I'm not Koolaid but I'm sure there's not a single person here who would consider that 4-door family sedan a sports car (please don't start listing cars like the Altezza and M3 to counter my point). Not trying to be a dick but it is what it is. | |

| It does have an LS and SS trim level, and it has a hell of a lot of custom parts online for a 4-door sedan. | |

| Dude don't waste your money away on "upgrades" for your first car especially one that's not even a sports car it's not worth it trust me. IMO this is Riced-out Civic level:  | |
