look like somebody hit him and threw his car to the wall and then somebody else came along and match that damage on the other side.

There was a tire debris on the highways, tried to avoid it and lost control. Collided with a transport truck then boucned onto the concrete wall on the other side.

There's less than 100 000miles on it. Really shitty because I just got my TEIN SS on and this happens! I hope it can be fixed and drivable because I love this car. Parents were thinking of getting a small compact car if it's written off...

Damn road gators will get ya. I had a close call with some debris last saturday. Man that is shitty. At least you are OK. as for the downgrade, fuck that. I bet it can be fixed, but your body panels will probably rattle when they are done. Who knows, you might get a lucky break on the bodyshop. Sometimes you get a guy who pays attention to the little details.

Good luck.

It is totalled.

There's no way they are fixing that.. period. I had much less damage to a same-year, same-mileage Altima 2 years ago and it was totalled.

Sure, the Teins can be yours. Only have to wait to take them off, not sure when. There's an upcoming meet in Windsor you should attend. Check on the meeting section for more info.

I hate to see shit like this, it always makes me think twice about putting too much money into my car. I've had a bit of experience with repairing my CL, and I think that yours will be written off by the insurance company.

Yea, I can probably get the your clears.

Subbuzz, You said you had a Teg?

When mine was totaled from a rear-end collision, I bought it back from State Farm for $200 then turned around and had AAA tow it to a salvage yard run by some friends of mine. He bought it for $350. So I made $150 for having it towed to his yard. I didn't have a lot of mods on it... so it wasn't worth the effort of stripping it. I just took out my stereo and that was it.

Sure was a nice ride though, I miss it some times.

what do you mean sucks to downgrade to a smaller car. Your S2000 is smaller compared to the CL. A VW GTI is smaller than a CL, neither of those are downgrades.

Shit, I need to get something smaller. I love the CL but it's too big for me.
