So, on my way to work, I was coming up to a light and some old lady (like 80 years old) crossed over the double yellow and cut out in front of me. I hit her, obviously, only on the rear bumper (passenger side) and on my front bumper (passenger side).... I'll post pics up later... I had it looked at, at Honda and there collision lady said it's totaled! I will get 2 quotes tomorrow for my insurance. I'm so depressed!!

Aww damn, that sucks! Hopefully your insurance gives you a hefty sum, do they ever take into account the mods made on the car? or do they give you the wholesale price for a stock?
 
that sucks. is insurance gonna claim it as her at fault or you?
I would hope so seeing as she went over the lines. Then again, there is often a clause in the law where if you're the person with the last option to act to prevent the crash you can be at fault. Depends on where you are though.

Hope they stroke you a fat check for your Teggy.

I spoke with the Police Officer who arrived at the scene & he said that she is at fault, not me. I have Full Coverage on her, obviously lol ... so we will see what happens... I am going to get a quote from United Collision & then let my insurance handle it. I'm just debating what I'm gonna do if they total her out...I don't want a salvage titled car... even tho I LOVE her :(

I will keep you posted!

Because of the year, 1994, and the damages & the passenger airbag deployed :( the insurance told me its probably going to be considering a total loss ~ GHEY!

of course its an old lady in an 08+ cadillac.

sorry to here about the accident though. hope it works in your favor.

i remember when they quoted mine it was 1100 or something close to that and they fixed it.
they ordered a new front end.(nothing was bent)

Well, the lady @ Honda, she was off the clock but is the one who handles the quotes said that she will write up a quote tomorrow & its totaled. BUT I am hoping not because I LOVE my car...

Get a check, buy it back, replace bumper, replace airbag, profit.

I just got my taxes on my car. Its valued at like... $2200. I lol'd when I saw it, but in reality, the year/miles determines what an insurance company values the car at, not what you personally think its worth.

if your going to get more than 3K (i highly doubt it) for the car then just take off your good shit and give it to the insurance and get a new integra
