TSXFL

2006 Navi AT with 30,000 or so miles. Drivers side airbag deployed, as did the passenger side-curtain airbag (not sure if it just one unit or two seperate bags for front and rear curtains). Coolant leaking everywhere, so some damage under the hood, not sure of what extent, both side mirrors completely sheared off. All windows intact, grill/bumper destroyed. Car would need to be repainted due to serious scratches/gouges the length of both sides of the car.

What do you guys think, is it totaled or not (from an insurance standpoint)? Its obviously repairable but not sure if the repairs will outrun the cash value in the insurance company's eyes. Should have the verdict in a couple days.

I walked away without a scratch. Thanks Acura!

It looks totalled. Your called is heavily damaged, not to mention that your airblags deployed.

Totalled to me.

Thank goodness you came out without an injury. That looks like a very bad accident.

Now... Onto more pressing matters... I call dibs on your navi if the insurance calls it a totalled car! XD

Yea that looks totalled to me.

if the airbags didn't deploy i would say possibly not totalled; my first wreck was pretty close to that.. minus airbags / scratches along both sides of the car..

keep us posted! good thing you're safe.

Looks totaled for sure...

Fixable. Totally fixable. Airbags can be replaced. The point here is.... is it WORTH being repaired ?

it also may depend on whether your frame is true. if there's any kind of bend or crack or something, insurance companies will consider it a total loss...

TSXFL

Thanks guys. I will let you know how it turns out once the insurance company is done with it. My guess is also totaled. I don't think I'll be able to part it out if the insurance company takes it for salvage.

Anyway, the 1st gen TSX was such a great all-around car, not sure what the current equivalent is for a replacement? I hate the new TSX due to the grill, so that isn't an option for me. any ideas?

I might actually just buy a 2006/2007 with similar miles to my old one.

Holy crap that looks like a nasty impact. Glad you're alright.

If you don't like the 2G, I'd look for a used 1G.

Insurance company says it is totaled

Probably going to look for a low mileage 2006-2008 tsx with Navi to replace it

dmassott

get a 6spd this time! lol

I don't think you can rip parts off of the car when insurance pays out for the loss. If insurance gives you money for the totaled car, then the car from that point on is their car. (I think) Whether they then sell it for parts or sell it to a junkyard is up to the insurance company. Again, correct me if I'm wrong.

Itchytoe

You can buy it back from the insurance company if you want to part it out. I think it's about 30% of the market value before the damage. Talk to your agent or adjuster.

Ouch man. Sorry to hear about your car. Glad you're in one piece.

Looks like an identical color, age, mileage to mine except no Navi. Hard to see it in that shape!
