Is this totaled 2???
Should I call my insurance company? It could effect my rates.
Anyone want two nice wheels?

That's just minor damage- a hammer and dolly should get that out.

well, if it were a coupe I'd say pull the dents and move forward. But a targa...hmmm...those are pretty fragile.

Jokes aside, what in the hell did that thing hit and did the driver survive?
That thing buckled big time in the middle.

I've heard that this " Folden en der mittle" problem, as the factory calls it, is quite common
with Targas. The repair technique involves a chain, a tree, and a 0 - 60 run in reverse. Email me offline for more details.

yikes, that'll teach him to run play chicken with a greyhound at 100mph. Now I have an excuse to spend the money on a cage.

Hopefully the car was parked and unoccupied when it was hit by the aforementioned Greyhound or whatever. It would have been a miracle if someone was in that car and survived.
