Well, I finally dropped the FX off at the body shop.
I have been fightin with the dickweed's insurance company since Christmas. They wanted to repair my fender, not replace it. A new fender and wheel lip molding is going on this week. I also did not want to leave it until I returned from winter holidays.
I'm driving an 09 Mazda 6 right now while it is being repaired. Karen and I just did a 5 hour trip in the Mazda, it's good on gas, but that's it. Karen was freaking when we were on the trip, it just doesn't handle the turns like my FX, I was constantly having to throw out the anchor. We also find it very uncomfortable. We have been spoiled by the FX.
I'll be glad to get the FX back. The insurance is also paying for replacement Venture-shield. I'll wait a month before I visit Sean at the Detailing Shop in Newmarket to get it installed.

Glad you got your jitney back, Wayne. I'm surprised the 6 wasn't a little more to your liking, good to know. NOT that I'm considering buying one.

Almost freaked when I saw the subject line again. Until I realized it was an old thread. I'll wait to hear bout the insurance battle until we have a pop.
N's CR-V gives me a similar feeling to the 6, good on gas.

Is that just the front lip? Side sills look stock... sick anyway... do it! You should find out if they make a Nismo kit for your FX :P
