Matt's STi was trashed last fall in a crazy freak highway accident. Apparently a large shard of fiberglass or some such flew off of a truck and landed right in his engine bay, shredding most of the front end and FMIC. He said that by the look of the damage, it would have skewered him in two if it had gone through the windshield.

I talked to him just a few days after it happened and he said he couldn't stand to post about it on the board, so I never said anything. I haven't talked to him since, so I'm not sure what became of it. It's possible that he got it all repaired.
