The title says it all. Woman blew though a red light. no one was injured too badly. Car is a total loss. I feel like got a fair settlement from state farm.




Its been real fellas. Got a lot of great pointers from this sight, hopefully my contributions we're beneficial too.

 

damn. that sucks. where r u located? might be interested in a parts car from the auction

 

Car is gonna be in Milwaukee. I met you Tom at the meet in late August.

 

Good that you got a decent amount from your insurance. Sad to see another CL go (and a 6MT at that...)

 

ooo, i remember u now. that sucks, one less cl at the meets. shit its pretty much just me that goes to the regular meets.

 

Doesn't look like the other car had much damage.

 

Damn RAV 4s, there evil (I own one) that sucks

 

Sorry to hear it man. Glad no one got injured! Good luck on the next car!

 

Glad your ok dude...Buy another 1 XD

 

damn that sucks good thing is that your ok.. Do you kno what car you want next?.. Hmmm I need some parts from that thing though!!

 

, figuring that you are not buying it back, if you do, is it a manual, if so sell me the manual

 

dam how come barely any of the wrecked CL are around Houston. all i see are autos and wrecked the shit out of.

 

Damn man, the Rav4 beasted you.

Im glad youre ok though. How much did you get for it?

 

Beasted LMFAO

 

why dont u buy it back from teh insurance?

 

only be good for parts, look at the fender to the driver's door, whole front end was pushed

 

Ouch.. Sorry to hear man..

 

Sorry to hear that man. I've been down that road before, except it was my fault

 

Dam Nt another One. Seems like these cars are a dieing Breed

 

Roughtly $11,400 after tax and fee reimbursement.

They wanted $1,600 for the buy back. Didn't end up buying it back.

 

solid... just glad ur not hurt bad... that, my friend is priceless!

 

Very true. Thanks everyone for the kind words.

 

Thats a nice payout on it though. Whats next?

 

another one down

 

u couldve recouped that money in one night


im real happy youre ok man. it couldve been on your side

 

Tranny alone is worth $1000-1200

 

i would have def bought it back for that price

 

that can be fixed if you are willing to put the time into it

 

x2

 

For $1,600 to buy that car back, I can see why junkyards are such a money maker.

Unreal.

 

never ends well with collisions with even small SUVs.

 

I don't have the know how to do anything with the car. The body shop wanted to buy the car from me, but said $1600 was too much...who knows. For me, I'd just as soon take a bath and have the headache be over.

 

I hear that. I guess I have bad luck, since these types of things (problems with cars and such) always seem to happen right when I've got my head wrapped around 10 others things at once. Then the car comes along and kind of demands your immediate attention...ugh.

I'm sure my trans will crap out when I'm a situation like this.

 

wow $1600 to buy back

that's the cheapest CLS6 swap i've seen..

 

can you sell the car as is?... i need parts...

 

$11.4k is a nice payout. How many miles were on it?

And I would have bought it back, the engine/trans is worth that much alone, everything else would have been profit.

Did the airbags blow? Side airbags too?

 

73000 miles. All airbags we're still intact.

 

so call up your insurance and see if you can still buy it back

cause as posted above i got dibs on the tranny

 

Or, call them up and find out if you can still buy it, let me know, and Ill buy the whole damn thing.

 

as u can see guy on that picture oil on the ground i dont think engine/tranny is still ok?
