Thanks for all the kind words.
I've found several coupes already, but they have all been automatics.
I guess if I buy my old car(5spd) back for cheap, I could just do a auto to manual swap.
As I mentioned in my previous post, this was not something I could have avoided, or planned for. The van was totally stopped at the intersection, and gave absolutely no indication that it was going to pull out directly in front of me. I have been driving for nearly ten years, I'm always well aware of my surroundings as a drive. This is my first major accident.
What was strange about this, is that there was no one ahead of me or behind me on the road and it happened at about 6:30 at night(plenty of sun). I had the obvious right of way, and was driving "by the book". The woman must have thought she had a clear lane to turn right and totally gunned it out in front of me, which was completely illegal because she was in a lane that was supposed to go straight.
NiteKids is the master of one-liners on this board.
And those big stupid vans are called conversion vans here in the midwest. Indiana
