LOL.
Dont you have insurance? If so.... total it out. Buy new car.
If you dont have insurance... you're an idiot. Buy new car and salvage what you can.

if you cant handle 90 miles per hour and cant watch the road ahead of you...please just ask a cop to revoke your license and ride a bike.

How do you not anticipate a sharp turn coming off the freeway? That's kind of the nature of the beast from my experiences around the United States...

in my opinion 16 years olds are too irresponsible to have a lisence. I was irresponsible at 16 as well but i never flipped a fricken car. you should sell everything and not get another car for a while

That's an acceptable excuse to you?

get another car and swap what you can in... then don't drive it till you're grown enough to realize you pay attention to the road not your friends...

BTW I'm not arbitrarely dumping on you either... I got into 2 bone headed accidents when I first got my license... I swore if I got in another before I was 18 I wouldn't drive anymore...

The last thing america needs is MORE bad drivers...

Pay attention to the road or get off it.

thanks for giving 16 year olds a good name buddy, my insurance agent loves kids like you.

I should bash on you a lot more. Lets do some math and tell me how much sense this makes.

16 year old kid + 90 mph on freeway = not a good idea
16 year old kid + 90 mph on freeway + not knowing the area = absolutely stupid
16 year old kid + 90 mph on freeway + not knowing the area + friends = absolutely ******* stupid
16 year old kid + 90 mph on freeway + not knowing the area + friends + no attention span = you are absolutely ******* retarded, you should have your ***** cut off so you dont reproduce. Be thankful you didn't kill anybody.

sell your car to a junkyard for a a couple hundred, buy a geo or something cheap &gt;$1000. You will **** up again. I just hope you dont kill anybody.

Alright, suggestions, not criticism.. umm.. ok, here's a suggestion, learn how to drive? No? not good? hmm... don't drive at 90 mph with sharp turns coming up with friends in the car.

But seriously why would you want to keep a D-Series?

Oh so it's one of those Civics with a loud system and 'altezza' taillights. I've seen your type before. Your car is not 'sick', 'rad' or 'wicked' BTW.

First and foremost, I don't think you should be driving with anybody in the car for a while. At your age you're just asking for trouble. I just hope you learned your lesson and calm down behind the wheel.

Second, I think a D-series motor is too much motor for him at that age. Give him a stripped down GEO and call it good.

Mybe b/ its one of the most expensive things in/on his car... its better to drive then to toe.... um i agree wit u in the situation where you have the money/hunger for a diff engine. I would be surprised if he has or needs either. The d series is enough power for now.

This is a tech forum but i would say either get insurance money if it has collision, or keep the engine n get a clean shell/body for cheap.
