My Totaled Camaro!!! Yeah!!! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

bevot9 · 12-11-2009, 09:31 PM

This happened at the beginning of November at night. So I'm going and right before i enter the intersection I see a guy in truck coming straight at me. Swerve, he still hits me. Airbags deploy. I go on center grass median. His truck in now perpendicular to mine. Onstar comes on and police are there. This wasn't my fault at all, my light was green for like 3 minutes (its a really long green light for the way I was going, i go past there all the time and its the weirdest light in world). So this dude runs a red light and hits me. Thanks guy!

End Result:
Totaled Car Vin with Vin less than 3500
Onstar is amazing
Car is very safe I think
I'm perfectly fine (truck's passenger was hurt-idk how much-hopefully fine)
Now time to get new car...

Even though I loved my Camaro, I don't think I want another. I had my fun with it now its time for another car, probably an SUV. Yeah lame, I know. Or a challenger (Ive owned a mustang before and camaro so i figure maybe get the third of the american muscle cars) Idk don't hate! I love the Camaro and thats why I chose the Camaro first.

But here are the photos (After and Before and After)

And hopefully the pics works cuz I suck at doing this

No hate here! Thank you for sharing those pics! I ordered my 2SS, but close behind was the Challenger. I can understand why you want something different (looking at those pictures). If you must go with a car other than the Camaro, I encourage you to get the Challenger and post pics!!!

Let us know what you think about the differences between the Camaro and the Challenger. From what I've seen on this forum, the Camaro5 guys & gals are, for the most part, secure in their car purchases and don't diss others for their choices.

Thank God you're okay! Any wreck that you walk away from is good news in the midst of bad news. Bad for the car, but good for you! That shows that the Camaro did it's job and protected you. Nice!

Again, glad you're safe. May you enjoy your next car purchase too!

Cmaro214 · 12-11-2009, 11:05 PM

dam, prob one of the worst camaro accidents from a member on here

viper1cobra · 12-11-2009, 11:08 PM

Sorry to hear about the accident but at least you came out of it in good health. Good luck if you get another Camaro, it really is a fun car to drive.

I had a similar accident and it was not fun. That accident totalled my 1986 Z-28 Camaro.

I did not think that I would ever get another Camaro, but I have a new 2010 5G Camaro.

geminidreams · 12-11-2009, 11:08 PM

Sorry to hear about your loss but a Challenger really??? Well good luck to ya and glad your safe..

Rockies4 · 12-11-2009, 11:14 PM

Sorry for your lost. Glad you're okay.

You really should out for the Z28.
