That sucks man. I'm surprise it didn't do more damage considering the size of that branch.

I walked out to my car earlier tonight after I heard a loud bang only to see a good sized branch next to my hood. Luckily no dent but its too dark to tell if there are any scratches.

That sucks. Looking at the damage, and the fact that it is a 7 year old car, I have a feeling that you will be looking for a new vehicle in the near future.

Man I didn't think it was that bad til I read through here and everyone kept referring to the attachments. I just had an uneasy feeling in my stomach, because my car is at my G/F's grandmothers house. I tried to park it as far far any trees to prevent this so it basically sits in the open, but it still worries me. Good luck though man! I hope it all works out. It was a clean P5

Damn the fucking luck, or the luck fucking! Sorry, but IMO as others have said, you should plan on finding new ride or buying this one back cheap & making convertible out of it.

that sucks dude. Looks like you could get away with spending 1500 to get it drivable and pocket whatever else they give you over the buyback. Or get a new ride. Mazdaspeed 3 O_o
