if youre cl-s was in a fire would you still repair it after.?? meaning there be nothing left on the outside just hashed exterior.. with all trims handles emblems headlights taillights spoiler headliner wiper cowl rear view mirror an side mirrors metled all down,throttle cable stuck,tranny couldnt shift out of park unless you use a 2nd key to unlock it ,windshield has a huge hole the size of a oil barrel...would you still attempt to repair the car even do the body chassis metal has been heated up an wireing has been heated up an could rust an cause problems later.?? just wonderring what some of you would do

 

Yeah... Umm..... Look for a new car, and trash that one.

 

i'm gonna answer a question with a question,would you really want it back after all that??!!

 

take it to the junkyard,dog................

 

definitely start looking for another one or something new...there's still a decent amount of CLs out there. If nothing else, think of it as an opportunity to upgrade to a 6 speed.

 

Definitely time for a new car.

 

No way!

 

Is he serious???

 

hell no!

 

Nope.

Hate to say it, but the CL is just another disposable commuter car... it's not like it's a classic collectible ferrari

 

really

 

Thats what I was thinking

 

Hell No!

I wouldn't even keep my CL if was involved in a fender bender. Im weird about that stuff

I knew a kid in HS that was speeding and crashed his car and died. The insurance company fixed his car and gave it back to his parents. Still to this day the car sits at the end of their road cause they refuse to sell it to anyone.

 

id buy an s2000

 

damn, thats brutal!!

and no i wouldnt repair my car if it resembled a bon-fire!!!

 

Is this another ex-girlfriend story like the Impala dude.

 

Will cost more to repair

 

mmm isnt it easier to buy a another CL??? lol take the insurance money and run

 

Maybe a volcano errupted and melted his CL? He does live in Hawaii.

 

Insurance scam FTW!

Nice find gaping46and2 That explains alot...

 

dam even though i buy salvage cars and fix them but i LAWAYS STAY AWAY from WATER DAMAGE AND FIRE DAMAGE. those can really make you lose money most of the times because of all the wireing and electronics and what not. SO the answer is NO don't fix it.

 

No!!

 

 

Even that sounds like too much work for me. I'd take all the parts that are good, and just toss the rest and start again with another car.

 

Nope, I'd get an 03 CLS-6

 

 

Sell the working parts and scrap the rest!!!

 

Junk everything and start new.

 

This is just stupid....

 

why the hell did you post this stupid ass question?

 

No

 

What the, no, *#^$ no man. I beleve you'd be crazy to do something like that.

 

Uhm......ok, new car.....

 

i asked this question because im in a blender right now of what to do..itll cost around 8k to fix paint an all but i dont have 8k,,and i still owe 6k on the car an i dont have full coverage on it i have only liability because i dont drive the car much bought it 3 yrs ago wit 71k miles an today it has 72k miles..it was just sitting in my garage peacefully ..so at the moment i just dont want to dump it cuz i still be paying the 6k i owe..wouldnt mind buying another 1 but thatll cost 11k which i dont have.. lost 3 cars an damaged 2 of my other cars and at the moment im staying at a hotel till they finish rebuilding my garage an clean/repaint/recarpet right now..just lost for the moment an wanted to hear other peoples thoughts..

 

id get a 07 tl type s

 

haha, did you just read his comment before yours? no money

 

oh, and i think you should just part out everything. i think you could get more out of that then anything.

 

No. It's a lost cause. Not worth it at all. I say try to part out what you can and sell the rest as scrap metal. Might make a bit off of that. I would assume that it would cost a lot more than 8k to fix the car as well.
