We had some hail and freakishly high winds in the metroplex yesterday. A guy at work said the winds were so high that they were setting off car alarms around his house. Luckily no hail fell near Denton. Sorry about your car man, hope everything works out ok.

San Antonio just got some hail this morning... Woke me up at 7:30am and hauled ass down to the canopy at my neighborhood pool in fear that it would get worse.

can you buy it back?
aslong as it doesn't leak or any windows/exterior things are broken (i know the taillights are, but those are relatively cheap)
this way you can turn the cl into a beater car or DD, if you wanted of course
on my city you wouldn't have to fix any of the exterior dents for it to pass safety
so all you would need to do is replace the tailights, and you should be good to insure it again...
but that's what it's like here, you'd have to ask your insurance company about your situation


sorry to hear about the news tho, i hope everything works out for you with the car hunt

This is what I would do...

1. Take the check and fix it with a little out of pocket.
or...
2. Buy another 3.0CL
or...
3. Buy an 00-04 Mustang GT
or...
4. Buy a 300ZX
or...
5. Buy a 5th gen Prelude

All GREAT sporty 2-dr coupes for under 7.5k

What's the buyback? If it's like 500 bucks you might consider doing it for the parts depending on what all you've done.

it was around 500, but i would be driving around an uninsured car with dents all over it

if we wanted to buy it back they would have given us 4,000 to fix up the car, which has over 6k worth of damage

if we were to sell the car to them (which we are) there giving us $6,470. which is plenty to get a new car + im taking off the rims and putting the stockies back on, so after selling them ill have another 700-900 dollars which will all go to the new car when i sell them.

and the car im getting is 7900 so we wont even be paying very much for a new car
