Default Good Bye CRX :-(

Well it's finally time to move on unfortunatly it's not by my choice. Was driving home last night went into a corner way to fast and paid for by going into a pole. Check out the pics and if you know anyone who's selling a DC let me know.

Who the **** do you think you are???? That's pretty messed up to say to someone. Are you honestly going to say that you have never driven "spiritedly" never broken the speed limit. If you can do that fine. If not, your just an Imature hypocirte that needs to take your hands away from the keyboard....... Either way that's a dick move.

thats nothing my friends car was worst and we fixed his with a tractor, hammer (red neck ) and a few trips to economy and pick-a-part. he doesnt have the greatest looking front end but its driveable and if he put more time and money in it he could get it to look brand new

Think he might need some antifreeze too.

Damn I hate to see that happen to a good CRX, but your alive thats what matters.

it honestly wasn't in that great of shape. I'm not really interested in trying to fix it because the frame rails are pulled in a few inches and i'd really question the high speed stability of a frame like that.....plus i want a back seat now so i'm looking at some integras around here

glad your okay.... looks like you hit dead center. how fast were you going when you hit it?

BTW are you going to be parting anything out? i find its a great way to get some $$$ back from the car and helps put a few bucks on a new car.

if so i might be interested in a few items....

... which probably means he should check his brakes for wear.
Probably needs new pads and shoes.

It's totalled. No doubt about it. It's probably salvagable.
The cost to fix it professionally is going to be more than the car is worth = total.

That's what I'm thining too!
Take it in to a body shop and have them put it on a frame rack.
See if the front subframe is still within spec. If it is, then it's all about bolting on a JDM front and you're good to go!

the ground looks kind of wet in those pictures. Driving fast in the rain in a rollerskate of a car like a crx

But as others have said...that may not be as hard to fix as you think.
