from the insurance pay out

 

Just curious, did you just recently get the car? It shows you've only been on the boards for 12 days so I was just wondering. I'm glad your ok though...Car can be replaced.

 

yes and no. i got the car sometime in july. and im still making freaking payments on it...

 

Yeah chief, that car is *dead.* I mean, anything can be repaired with enough effort... but the frame will never be as rigid as it was, and the damage is heavy enough that even if they repair it well, if you get in another accident it won't be pretty.

You have full insurance, right? Because if so, you'll probably be able to walk away and get a new car. And make sure that you retain ownership of the wreck yourself; the parts can probably be sold for at least a couple grand...

 

the bigger question is do you really want that car back to fix it up.

it's much easier and cheaper to start with a straight platform than "i guess it's straight unibody"

 

yeah well at the moment i dont have money for anything. unless my insurance gives me money AND pays off my car. i just need a car to drive..

 

His front looks very similar to my car. The car barely has any frame damage. What little frame damage there is will be easily straightened. Its been a week since my crash & it already has a new suspension on it at the shop. I may get it by the end of the week!

See For Yourself

 

yeah it does look a bit like yours.. except 3/4 wheels are messed up as well. do you think theyll repair it? cuz i dont have the money to do payments on a car that i use to drive to work with and i cant even drive!

 

In my opinion,i think they might fix that. if that frame is not too bad, they'll fix it. if the frame is twisted, its done.

I say let the insurance pay for anotehr one. Don't take their bullshit of having it fixed.

 

lol ive never been in an accident so i dont really know what the whole process is...?

i didnt know the insurance would cover that much considering im still doing payments on it
