I lied.
I will be going to my local dealer... Tomorrow... With a crushed front bumper. Right after the insurance adjuster looks at it.

Sitting at a stop sign and I happen to look up to see the car in front of me, in reverse backing up at a high rate of speed. No time to react or hit the horn. Bam, right smack into my front bumper. Lights are good, the frunk is fine, hood ok. Looks like just the bumper.
100% her fault. Poor girl was crying her eyes out about hitting a Porsche.

I'll post the cell phone pics later.

Yeah, I've noticed that Boxsters can attract cougars.

So why was she backing up at a high rate of speed?
And not watching where she was backing?

She pulled up too far (funny intersection) and a tanker truck was turning. She back up to make sure the truck didn't clip her front end.

Never looked back. As to why? Don't know. I could only speculate.
