Sad Day! Totaled My Baby... 😥 Luckily I Walked Away With Just A Fractured Rib

Bought this car in 2014 with 53k miles. I just totaled it on 11/6/22 with only 155k miles. I freaking LOVED this car so much. Literally never had any issues with this car. I babied it. It drive so well. Nothing else like it. It was a 2010. It was paid off. No issues. I had at least another 100k miles left to go. I found one in similar condition with 72k miles for $18k, UT I felt like that was too much money so I decided to upgrade to a 2018. Bittersweet....

That was a bad accident . Glad you were able to walk away with minor injuries.

Congratulations on the new RLX.

Crash safety is one of the RL's most brilliant features -- one of the first Honda/Acuras with the Advanced Collision Engineering "ACE" body structure that distributes forces in a crash.

It gave its life for yours, just as it was designed to do. It was still a very smart buy you made.

Glad you're okay...
when it's not your choice to get rid of a car, it hurts. Shit, I don't think there's a car I DON'T regret selling
Anyway, you'll fall in love with the new one, give it time.
