Bye bye tls- totaled!

Well time to bid farewell to my beloved 03 TLS. Other than the three transmissions it was a great care and was problem free except the tranny.

Two nights ago someone ran a red light and i hit front end to end crunching my front and deploying both airbags. Pics of my gruesome beauty. I will spare you the horrific injury pics.

The ins company didnt even send an adjuster to look at the vehicle they considered it a total loss based on my description alone.

Yes it does, on top of about half the city not knowing how to drive everyone is always texting while driving. I'll be next to a person just staring down into their lap for miles reading a text

well my initial plan was to drive it for another year or two and then pick up an S5 always had acuras or hondas but im not in love with the 4th gen TL. I may just pick up an older 3G and drive it for a few years and then upgrade to something nicer.

I dont have the car anymore emptied it out and got my plates, some company associated with my ins company picked it up from the tow yard. I just have to get my title which is in another state and give them that then they will give me the check for the loss value.
