Took a turn in the rain, hit a pole (slammed against the drivers side door). I'm very sure it's totalled.. (even the dash board is cracked and the ignition is hard to turn. AIrbags didnt go off though. I had my window down which was a good thing.) I'll have to try to get some of my parts off to sell. Luckily, the rims are ok except for one that has a small gash (but not bent) and the tires are fine too.. 3 years with the car...no accidents or even tickets, then this. It sucks.
Holy crap man, that sucks. Your car was sick... But like DTNODYA said, the car can be replaced, just be glad your ok.
Your car was one of the best looking cars here on Stangnet that sucks. At least you are ok though Smeech.It's not like you can't replace your car.From the looks of that pic it looks like you could have frame damage so,your insurance company will probably total it if they are smart because the damage will exceed the price of the car.You should look at it this way Smeech you can use your insurance money towards a better car like a 03-04 Cobra or a 07 Subaru STI. The best of luck to you Smeech.
not to be a dick but if your catback is in ok condition i may be interested, infact id be interested int he mufflers alone
Don't worry about requesting that.. I'll let you know in a few days whether or not I can get that off for you. I'm going to at least swap the grill delete, plenum and tb and tri-ax...and try to get the wheels..
Thanks for the kind words! If it is totaled (and it probably is), I'll be on the lookout for something new... I would go for a 03/04 cobra if they weren't going for $28k+ around here! Too expensive here... I may go with an 06 GT (still some on clearance around here)... I like the interior and the way they drive, but I like the new edge body style better for some reason. If I can find a cool deal on an STI, I'd definently look into it. Thanks again :SNSign:
Also you can put your parts in the classifieds here on Stangnet or you can put them on www.ebay.com . Just a thought.
No problem..it's cool talking to you. If that is the case go with a car you can live with and you will enjoy driving everyday.I have seen some excellent deals on STI's lately because I want to order a 07 Subaru STI and have been looking everywhere. If you get a check from your insurance company happy car shopping and I hope to see you around here on SN. www.ebaymotors.com www.autotrader.com
same thing happened to me but shes gettin fixed. how fast was u goin i was only going 35 so its fixable.
I about lost it on a dry day a week or so ago. I was coming around a very slow semi sharp corner and simply shifted into 2nd gear, let the clutch out and applied little throttle and the car snapped the back end around. It caught me totally offgaurd... seeing as how when I want it to spin it never does, lol.
Thanks for the support guys.. yeah there's a chance it may be fixable, but there are a lot of things affected that you can't really see in the pic...like the roof (dented), window/windshield frame and the dashboard (cracked) and cluster, and the ignition was very hard to turn (unlocking the wheel to tow) If the frame is okay, there may be a chance it's fixable.. We'll see, I'll keep everyone posted... I have a few requests on parts..
I really do hate seeing thread titles about stangs being R.I.P!!! It actually truly bothers me to see a stang gone. Sorry for your miss hap .Glad to see/read that you are okey .
In tribute, I uploaded this video... nothing fancy, good idea of the sound http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4H1f2ObsDHI Beware the cameraman burps at 14 seconds after the birds chirp.
