The Grand Am is Crashed!

Cyrix · 07-12-2006, 06:52 PM

So I was driving home from work today, when a SUV full of tourists decided not to yield when turning left on a green (not green arrow) and ended up im my path when i was going about 45MPH. She got a ticket and now its up to her insurance company to fix my car or total it, we'll see what happens heres some pics....

Cyrix · 07-12-2006, 06:53 PM

heres what im worried about, frame damage and airbags

eric99gt · 07-12-2006, 07:00 PM

All body parts intact? I think the car is a lost cause.

Cyrix · 07-12-2006, 07:08 PM

from the looks of it, both fenders, front bumper, reinforcement bar, header panel, both headlights, hood, airbags, foglights, alignment, and frame damage, everything else is ok though

Mirage85 · 07-12-2006, 07:19 PM

I would start shopping around.

Cyrix · 07-12-2006, 07:20 PM

yeah if it is totaled, im for sure getting a GTO

myneedforspeed · 07-12-2006, 08:09 PM

sorry to hear man...glad about the GTO though.,..

00GT1 · 07-12-2006, 08:23 PM

that sucks dude, looks like you had a sweet setup on the interior... good luck on the GTO

Cyrix · 07-12-2006, 08:30 PM

yeah if it is totaled, im going to have a lot of stuff for sale, like brand new TOG headers, full sc/t bodykit (new, never installed) and alot of other random stuff

nascarnate326 · 07-12-2006, 08:36 PM

Sorry about your luck, but I would start looking for goats. I like your setup too, GP wheels?

Cyrix · 07-12-2006, 09:25 PM

Honestly, most cars arent the same after such a hard hit- even if they can fix it, you will always notice something different/new noises and most likely wont feel safe still driving it- I know that once my airbags go off, I would be leary to ever drive the same car again. You never know if some fly-by-night mechanic hooked up the sensors incorrectly...

Cyrix · 07-12-2006, 09:40 PM

true, they will probably total it just because of the cost of the airbags and frame damage alone

^^ x2 all the way.. Look forward to the GTO

FastSteve · 07-12-2006, 09:56 PM

02 and that amount of damage. I am going to say totaled. While I dont believe they are doing the 0.0% anymore, I do believe they still have a pretty good offer going on the GTO. I would start shopping.
