This is such a convenient post for me because it fits the data like a charm. A Subaru Impreza with a WRX spoiler and an intoxicated driver whacked my oh-so-meekly parked Saturn on Sunday the 13th :

My Damage :


His Damage :


Good news : No one hurt.
Bad news : My car took a knock.
Good news : Seems to be only plastic panel damage.

I got an alignment, and there were no visible problems. Car is working fine.

I don't think it had anything to do with AWD. It was just a fast car with the wrong driver.
