'02 Civic EX VS. Llama

I was driving home from work the other day, same way as I always go. All of a sudden a llama barrels out from behind a wall, right in front of my car. At this point I am doing approximately 45 MPH. I tried to swerve out of the way, but it was unaviodable. I was going too fast and the llama was too close. On impact, it flew up onto my hood, and through my windshield. Miracously I escaped with only minor scratches and bruises, but my Civic coupe did not. The llama had severe head injuries and was euthanized. Both front airbags deployed, I need a new windshied, hood, bumper, radiator, and I am not even sure about any mechanical damage. I was able to drive home, but it is leaking antifreeze.

I was just wondering if this has happened to anybody else before?

Thanks

Look bussy

I'm not looking for people to poke fun at an innocent llamas death. I have very deep feelings of guilt because of this traumatizing experience. I do not feel like discussing my therapy, and it is not any of your business.

So just back off boss...ok?

Thanks!!

Dang, all i can think is to post 2 "own3d" pics.

One for the pool Llama

The other for your Vic.

Glad to hear that at least one of the 3 of you made it out ok.

Dude, I'm sorry to hear about your car, and about the llama dying and all, and am glad you're ok.

But where the hell does a llama come from in detroit? [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

cambo has a spectacular aura aboutcambo has a spectacular aura about
what are u expecting to get from us with a title like "02 civc ex VS Llama"? look at all the other threads with titles like that. they're all "At least u won" or "sorry about ur loss" type replies. even better would be the "good kill" reply.

where does a Llama come from in detroit? well...around me, there's supposedly an Ostrich(sp?) farm.

Huh? That was my other Civic.

Anyway, it's still for sale if you're in the Boston area or would like it shipped.
