Is bugeye becoming rare? How many out there?
I still have a bugeye since 2002, I can't seem to get rid of it.

I think they are cheap now, so insurance doesn't bother to fix such damage anymore.

All the n00bs are probably buying used bugeyes for cheap and smashing them.

lesson learned: Don't get hit in a bugeye or it will be totaled.

Yeah, if only I had known earlier. I would have hoped for a more spectacular ending for the car, like taking out 6 parked Priuses before it bursting in flames.

Hey Sherman,

Sorry to hear about your loss! Glad you're ok. So what's next? Another Subaru or to something different?

Not sure yet. I would love a BRZ, but it's not practical enough. I want to get another hatchback, but with better gas mileage. Not interested in the NA Impreza, so the only thing that comes to mind is something soulless like a Mazda3 or Ford Focus.
