someone pulled out in front of my phoenix yellow ls/vtec DC2 early saturday morning, i just got the insurance quote from the damage, i was hit in the front right side, the car is not totalled, the quote came out to be a little over 5 grand in damage and repairs, my car just broke 100,000 miles to, the question is: Should i continue to pursue my dream of modifying my teg, or try to sell it and start ALL OVER AGAIN any comments would be helpful seeing as i know ya'll have had these things happen before.
p.s. the accident was not my fault, it was the other drive that pulled out in front of me.

 

sue the pants off the person that pulled out in front of you, take as much money as you can, and put that dough into your Teg. I wish i would've done that when I was rearended....it sucks being a nice person.

put yourself in the other persons shoe.

I dont think you would be to happy about that.


sk8phaze just get compensation for the damage done to your car and your body (if you were injured at all).

I dont believe in raping people for their money

 

Yo first of all I don't think all of "us" have had this happen to us..... Second if you were hurt sue till the insurance company starts to think what the f**(. I would take the 5,000 and get a car and when I say car a REAL car..... If they will give you 5g's then be glad.

 

are you implying that a PY LS/vtec integ aint a "REAL" car??.... ...but yeah dont rape em...as said before..what if it was the other way around...

****, i just about totaled my gsr the other day, some lady hit me head on about 45 mph. roughly $6,000 damage, hopefully it gets out the shop next tuesday, its been in for almost 3weeks, AHHHHH, wrecks suck, but get it fixed.. then u can always sell it

 

What if you got into an accident and clearly the other person was at fault and yet he denied everything? In other words, lied his *** off to the cops and have the guts to say I was at fault? Right after the accident, he got out of the car, didn't say ****! Didn't ask me if I was alright, didn't say sorry, NOTHING.
My car was totalled and was carless for 4 months and had to see a doctor about my neck and back. I lost 3 grand during this process despite the money I got for my totalled car. Bottom line, let him sue if he wants and was not at fault. Afterall, he caused him unneccessary harm. (Btw, I didn't sue because I'm such a nice person. I regret it every single day now)

 

First of all yes you were correct I did say a REAL CAR don't us abbriviations to identify your car......or whatever it is......

 

Oh yea found this might help out a bit http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...=6783

you never know when you might need a good garden piece.

 

Yo dude, I got a CV-90718 with a turbo flux capicator, that **** be mAd qUiK y0!!!!

 

think about the way our entire country is going with all this sue happy bullshit...its terrible, get the money to repair ur car and any injuries, then leave it at that...people make mistakes, dont make that ruin their lives, i dont think i could really be happy with someone elses hardearned money, thats just me

 

wtf are you talking about?

 

Well I'll give my .02 cents on what you should do with the car and let everyone else just bicker back and forth about stupid, mindless stuff.

Is the frame bent? bent badly? any engine damage that maybe unrepairable? Your car will have a history that is has been in an accident so selling it down the road (or now) you wont get as much for it. However, if they insurance company is giving you $5000, how much do you think you can sell the damaged car for? Add that up and figure out can you get a good car for that?

Obviously it's a tough choice. If it was me I would keep it but I'm still in love with my car so I wouldn't let it go, although I'm sure there will be a time when I want a change, do you want a change?

 

I really have put alot of time and effort in my integra and dont want to sell it, i would like to continue adding parts to it and making it a fast street car.

 

damn, insurance just called, their gave me choice to total it or repair it, im saying total it and my dad said i should get another integra, if anything ill get a GSR,i dont know what year, im trying to pursuade them to get me a used '01 RSX, that will be difficult because of money. they said there gonna give me around $6,000 for my whole car. i've spent over $2000 in aftermarket ****! ok, well now im looking at a RSX or GSR, any opinions?

 

its ok drake, the lude;ll will kill you no metter what! but hey at least all of it will match!

why don't you see how much you can buy back the totalled integra for? they should let you buy it back for a very low price. then you can take out all the good stuff (engine, suspension, seats, etc), and sell off the body panels that are still good (rear end, doors, etc). then you could either get another integra that was stripped or a civic and make a hybrid.

 

ive had the misfortune of having to deal with this twice in the last six months! the first time it was just the fender, but right now im in the middle of dealing with a wrecked front end. (stupid lady...) since youve already invested $2000 into aftermarket whatever, i would have it repaired. their insurance should take care of it. if you decide to total it, youre out that 2 grand.
