Sure the pan is somewhat low on these cars, but I've hit some big potholes/bumps in the road, and have never so much as scraped it....even when the suspension has bottomed out. What did she hit??!
We'll see tomorrow. First question would be, what's up with parking there, it might be that I'll accumulate more $$ in parking tickets than towing it. Maybe if it's not too bad I could JB-weld it.. Well, enough of this guesswork. Jacking the car up in the middle of a busy street is maybe a bit too much for me
