who knows?

when my wife crashed her wrx, the damage looked much less than that, and we later found out that the timing belt snapped(along with the $8,000 front end damage)- gratefully thats all that was "damaged" - but later down the road we are beginning to see/feel some changes.... the engine will never be/feel the same again----

so yeah, things may "look" okay- but shaggs you know, when we sold cars... we just "knew" when a car bas been in an accident.... no matter big or small.

Looks can be deceiving. Hope the driver was okay. The engine and tranny??? Maybe ask Ryan at Vakamon.
