Thanks, everyone's fine.
I was on my lane (left) and other guy was on my right on his lane and must have really wanted to make a left turn or be on the left lane and pushed me into an utility pole. You can see the right side is really fine. The left, not so much.

a lot less scary than what was playing in my mind after seeing the big hit on your driver side...I thought you had gotten tboned.
Glad everyone is okay and sad that you're gonna miss your ole friend.

I've had mine for about 9 years, so I can understand the sentiment.

Hopefully you made it without a scratch. I handed down my 06 TSX four years ago to my son for his first car and he really loves this car while in college. What are your plans for a replacement?

Can you give us a hint of country of origin? I'm leaning toward Germany and something from the M series?

Germany is correct but not an M series...

14 years and 120,000 miles with my 04 silver tsx. been through northeast winters, 5 minor accidents, 3 different girl friends and my now wife. The car is still running great and never needed any major work done on it. Cost of maintenance has far exceeded my expectations. Only trouble I really had was I kept denting the rims on NYC potholes -- finally just replaced them with cheap after-markets last year. I just had my 2nd kid and need to upgrade to something larger (got a Tesla Model X). Literally tearing up a little bit writing this cause this car has been with me through so much. I only have one parking spot so will have to trade it in.... Been a superb ride guys =)

Hmmm.... Focus ST? Nice!!! Much faster, I assume, not that the TSX is that slow, or anything, but glad to see you're still driving a small car... More fun thst way!

Focus RS actually. The RS is made in Germany and thus mrgold35's reference to Germany in post #10 was correct.
