6G Celicas Forums _ General Discussion _ celi #2 gone

Posted by: stephen_lee Jul 9, 2009 - 7:54 PM

ok guys. first off i think im gonna cry.. but my baby is pretty well gone

So this morning i was on my way to a clients, traveling the speed limit, in the outer lane. There was a large f250 to my lefyt. out of nowhere he swerves into my lane, i brake, swerve, brake more, and BOOM, slide, bounce, CRASH. Took out a curb, and a stop sign going ~30MPH. back out, and drive into a parking lot, and SURPRISE no brakes kindasad.gif . try to open my door. nope. climb to the passenger door and get out, see brake fluid, and a horrible looking fender. move to the front, broken headlight, drivers side... OMG. wiped out from tire to tire. check out my tires, one has a nice chunk, another is low, and my rear suspension is totally flat. no air bags, no broken glass. IMHO doesn't look like ther is any frame damage, though. Guy was ON THTE CELL PHONE, didnt even look. he admittied fault, cop placed him at fault, and he was gone. now im waiting for insurence to complete the claim and hopefully i'll raise celi #3 smile.gif &&maybe an MR2 if im lucky wink.gif theres one for 500$ but w/o motor. if i get enough cash && finda celi cheap && in decent condition i'll try to talk him to 400. if so, im gettin her for project smile.gif

Posted by: jimmykay Jul 10, 2009 - 9:13 AM

well, by celi #3 you should know all the ins and outs of your car and what you want to do to it.

Glad to hear you're alright though.

Posted by: presure2 Jul 10, 2009 - 11:48 AM

celicas are replaceable, lives are not.

Posted by: DEATH Jul 10, 2009 - 4:15 PM

Damn son I feel for your loss. You know if there is anything you need to get Celi#3 on the road all you gotta do is call me.
Glad you were unhurt tho. If you decide to part feel free to use my garage sale and I'll be sure to pass people over to you for anything they may need that I don't have. kindasad.gif

A man sorry about your ride. My celica was totalled in a similar way and the insurance company totalled it. But after some research I found out that they would let me keep it for only 500 dollars. In the end I got $3000 for the car after they took out the 500 dollars. With that, it only cost me 1800 to get the car back in tip top shape...Something to think about. BEST WISHES!!!!

wouldn't you need to get a reconstructed title? those things suck. they take away value... and besides after that the car will never be he same. i would get the money and run... after all his insurance will pay out. sorry to hear your loss. good thing your not injured though...

Posted by: alaNi Jul 11, 2009 - 11:19 AM

the sticker survived!!!! I hope you decide to stick with a celi =D

Why is it that every accident that happen on here the other car has scrapes and a couple dings. But the celicas always take a beating. IT'S NOT FAIR! mad.gif mad.gif

Posted by: CelicaST_CALI Jul 12, 2009 - 1:37 AM

At least your ok..car doesn't look to horrible...


Is that the guy??

Posted by: stephen_lee Jul 12, 2009 - 10:04 AM

yep. thats the guy

Posted by: richee3 Jul 12, 2009 - 10:55 AM

There's a list of jokes so long that I could start making about that guy based on appearances alone.... But I won't get started and get myself banned. That sucks about the Celica! But hey, there are quite a few people in here on their 3rd Celi, myself included, and all it is is a fresh start for you! Keep us updated on how everything goes. Glad you're alright, that wreck sounds pretty nasty.
