And I Loved It So Much I Bought A Second One. So Now I Own Two 2003 STR's, One Platinum Silver With Black Interior The other Adriatic Blue With Beige Interior. I'm Here To Learn And Help When I Can. Thank You!

Calvin, welcome to the forum. I'm in Wilmington. I'm sorry to see what happened to the blue car. Looks like the wind took the hood. If you need anything, drop me a line.

I'm Guessing They Didn't Latch The Hood Properly..Said It Happened At 35Mph Lol..Right!?! The Kid Who Took It On A Test Drive (Joy Ride) Is A Tool..Never Liked Him. Even Told The Shop Owner "Don't Let Him Drive My Car".

Wow I'm Surprised To See Others From Wilmington On The Forum. Thank You For The Offer ..I Will Definitely Be Reaching Out To You For Help. I Need A Knowledgeable Mechanic As My Newest STR Has All The ZF Demons. I Did Manage To Get A Warranty For The Silver One. Well Thanks Again..It's Nice To Have Friends I've Never Met!

HOLY GOD!

how did you not almost kill someone?

I surely hope 2 things are happening, 1. your service was completely free and you will never be going there again.

2. the shop's insurance is paying for ALL of your damage with no money out of your pocket.

I am so sorry how heart breaking. im sorry man

Never Said I Didn't (Almost)..


1. I Didn't Pay Them A Cent ..And Will Never Go Back.

2. Insurance Totaled The Car Because It Needs A New Roof.

Lesson Learned...Parts Car! Now Who Needs STR Parts?

Apparently Not ..I Drove It Home From Classic Auto Body On Brookside Dr. Just Off Maryland Ave. No One Really Noticed ..Except For Some Teenagers In Richardson Park. As I Rode By I Heard "Ooohhhh S#ĄT.. Damn Yo Look At That Jag ..That Sucks"

Btw For Anyone In The Tri-State Area That Needs A VERY Good Body Shop Look Up Earl At Classic Auto Body Brookside Dr. Wilmington De. Very Nice Guy That Does Stellar Work. Tell Him Jaguar Fred Sent You. My Middle Names Frederick So He Calls Me Fred, But I Go By My First Name (Calvin).
