Unhappy Got in a Wreck (pics included)

Well, I didn't want this to be my first post to this awesome Camaro forum, but here it is. I just got a 2012 Camaro RS V6 about a month and a half ago. Last Saturday I was driving down a beautiful back road in said beautiful car. Unfortunately for my car, however, it had rained earlier that morning. I ended up hydroplaning off a bad curve onto a hill, hitting a stump or something, doing a 180, then landing sideways in a ditch. It's pretty depressing for me because it's my first nice car, and I absolutely love it. The body shop said I should have it back in around 3 weeks.

So, does anyone else have stories of their Camaro wrecks they want to share?

Wow, glad you're okay. So I do have a question... Why was your sunroof open? Is that how you had to climb out?

Thankfully, no. Good thing I had my seatbelt on though, could've been a different story.

Yeah hopefully it's because they're going to do a quality job on it. They use brand new GM parts and they work with Camaros a lot, so we'll see
