Well driving home from work someone decided it was a good idea to change lanes in to me. Sent me spinning into on coming traffic, lucky I wasn't hit again

That just sucks. Just like everyone says glad you are ok. It sucks for the car I can't stand having things re painted. Good luck .

justjoshin · 01-16-2016, 10:19 AM

Glad you are ok, and I know you must be sick over this.

Shinebrightx · 01-16-2016, 10:36 AM

Ouch !

Mgizzle · 01-16-2016, 10:47 AM

The person stop? Sorry to hear, hopefully they will take care of you insurance wise.

Apex Motorsports · 01-16-2016, 11:05 AM

Sorry to hear that. It really sucks.

hammdo · 01-16-2016, 11:11 AM

I feel your pain. I had mine two weeks when an idiot decided to make a right tun in a left only lane. I was pissed too. It will be fixed, but I too, am glad you're ok..

The kind of thread we all dread.

Hopefully they will take care of you, and in retrospect it will be as if it never happened, after is all said and done.

Good luck

Ugh! Makes me sick to my stomach to see, sorry that it happened and glad that you weren't hit again. Hope it all turns out well.

Ouch , but Easy fix . Will look like new after repair. Just make sure the insurance company and body shop don't give you a bad Carfax. If they report it to Carfax you need to be properly compensated for the diminished value of the car . Looks like about 4 K worth of damage .

That might be a little low on the estimate, air bags deployed will eat up that much !

If it doesn't have to go on the frame machine and the rear rim / tire and suspension are ok a good body shop can do it for around 4K with used airbags. Frame damage add $1500.00

You're alright, that's all that matters. Sounds horrible. I was driving to work like 3 weeks ago, on the freeway during heavy rain and I ended up catching that same kind of accident right in front of me. It was a few cars ahead but I saw that stupid dummy in the tiburon in the left lane try to go in the middle, and the rear of the big pickup in that middle lane shake violently. They both took off the next exit, but they were too far ahead for me to see any damage.

What is it with people who don't know how to drive?

Hilflos · 01-16-2016, 01:24 PM

Glad you're ok. It'll be fixed and as good as it ever was. Sorry it happened. Here's hoping it's back with you in pristine condition as rapidly as possible.

Edit: Was pretty pissed when mine got dinged up too. Love it even more now.
