Default RIP del sol

So i was driving down the road doin about 45 and a chrysler town&country minivan is in a parkinglot on the right waiting to make a left to go the opposite direction i was going. well the dumbass decides she wants to pull out right in front of me. i locked em up and slammed right into her driver door. she then moves her van from the lane and stops in the center turning lane and just sits there(never gets out to see if im ok) so i got out and walked over to her and shes just sitting there with a blank stare. i ask if shes ok and all she says is "my mom is gonna kill me" and never once asked if i was ok. so it turns out this girl is only 16 and has only been driving for 6 months. so anyway the car got towed and the insurance company declaired it totaled. so now my baby is gone. heres some pics, my pain for your pleasure.....

vBulletin doesn't support HTML posts.

Simply put the link to the image in some image tags.

That's forum image tags, not HTML image tags. Forum tags are denoted with square braces, ie. [ IMG] [ /IMG], but without the spaces. There's no src="" type deal, either, the link to the image simply goes between the ] and the [.

PS: Sorry to hear about the del sol, I re-linked the images for you.







Note:
That car isn't totaled. It can be fixed with about 1.5-3k. You can def. get that in insurance money. I'd most definitely buy it back from the insurance company if they decided to total it out...

yeah i had alot of blood, sweat, and tears poured into this car... its a shame this happened. some of my friends/family are saying its not a big deal, you will get another one.... but it just wont be the same.

That's great you made it through unscathed, sucks your baby is totalled though. Buy it back an part it out?

New driver + big vehicle =

One of the most common, deadly combinations on the road.

Sucks.

I'd buy the car back though. It doesn't look too bad from those photos, but I suppose it could be much worse. Fix the hood and take the bumper off and I'm sure it's not as bad as it first looked.

A lot of cars that are in front end collisions do that because the passenger airbag hits the window.
