Default ***Sad story; positive outcome***

How's it going guys? I'm new to S2Ki, but I've been in the car/Honda game for a while. Some of you may have seen me on H-t, Tennspeed, or EM1Crew.
Long story short, my house burnt down last month, and my boosted EM1 was in the garage. Unfortunately the fire started in the garage due to something electrical, and I was at school 80 miles away, so there was no hope . . . I'm glad to have my family and friends at this time. Unfortunately my cat didn't make it. Regardless we're all keeping our chins up and moving forward.
I'm in the process of fighting with my insurance compnay to get some of my aftermarket parts covered. But as soon as that's all said and done I plan on getting an S2K. Ive always loved them, and i must stay trueto Honda lol

Here's my Si:

Ouchers, sorry man

Well, my start wasn't as nearly dramatic, but I got my S2000 due to someone totalling my previous car, so I know something positive can come out of a bad situation.

Not sure if you had any optional coverage for the aftermarket stuff but I hope the insurance company comes through. Good luck!
