well it happened the infamous rear eneded, but I have to say Thank you Toyota for Options

[M1050]

Well thought out bumpers
Got rear ended and then shunted into the car in front of me
but was lucky, my car may be only stock but survived with
and some paint damage and minor scratches on the bumpers
phew I say, thought it was going to be worse when I saw
what was coming up behind me.
I was on the motor way heading home after work when the car in front slowed so I followed suit
then looking in the rear mirror I could see it all happening
the driver behind me wasn’t paying attention, screech, BANG
and SHUNT,
The Celica came off the best as the car in font ended up with a bent bumper and the one that hit me had a smashed head light and bent hood,

So again say I well done Mr Toyota

I bought my Celica when I was on spring break in college. I drove it off the lot, made two right turns.......and got rear ended! Worse yet it was by my girlfriend who had driven me to the dealership in her Taurus. There was no visible damage to my car, but hers was totaled. All they did to mine was take off the bumper cover, replace the foam underneath and put a new cover on because the catches had broken in the impact. I was impressed, too.
