sucks sorry dude. be careful what you take out before the insurance adjuster sees it, they will deduct for stuff like that. Anything to pay you less. Also give them any receipts of recent maintence and mods.

My car has pretty tight and reponsive steering, maybe your car need some work? Also everyone always bitches about a wide turn radius. Granted this car doesnt have the turn radius of my prelude i can take a pretty damn tight turn in it. Guess it all comes down to driver.

Was this accident your fault? Anyway, good luck.

yo bro
If you get the time i'll hook you up if you can get two things for me. 1. there is a bleeder valve on the engine block that is associated with the cooling system. From the front of the car it is on the left hand side top of the block on a 2.2 sbout the size of a nickel
also interior hand thingy for the passenger on the roof that you hold onto when cornering sharply (i guess that's what it's for) i lost the plastic piece somhow that covers one end and there is exposed metal now.
if you could get these, i'll make arrangements to pay ya and shipment
thanks bro let me know

If you parts the car out....maybe get a buy back for a couple hundred im sure you would get a lot more back from all the people in this forum....Im looking for a rear - right tail light. Keep us posted. I wish you luck on your future car. Did you get hurt at all?

Sorry - i always wanted to use that one! Seriously though - i wanna see some pics - is it really totaled? How much frame damage did it do? I cant believe the front bumper and lights would total the car alone? Sorry to hear about that!!
