So my car was totalled...
 
Some punk 16 year old blew a red light and demolished my Miata...

:vash: hospital checked me out and I'm fine thankfully...

... there may be a part-out thread to follow :facepalm:

That sucks man. Good thing your ok. Half the people around here should not be allowed to drive. This state gives anyone a license. That 94 should make you feel better. No emissions should make you feel better too.

Pics or it didnt happen! (jk im glad your okay but i want to see the carnage)

SlideRuler 10-23-2010 01:03 PM

always sucks when your baby is taken away because of some noob.

where was it hit? I'm interested in turbo parts for my 96

jtothawhat 10-23-2010 01:16 PM

Well glad you're alright, sad to here about your car. I knew you should have came to strats and you wouldn't have had a problem!

Fawk. Sounds like its time for a shell from the isellmiataparts.com guys (if you are back in Chicago now) maybe? Then a MT get together and swap EVERYTHING party.

Another IL miata meets the fate of an asshole driver :(
I'm going to mount a giant orange flag to the bad of my car.

and I want things off of yours... wanna trade? :drool: haha

gotta go steal back my seats, harnesses, COPs, roll bar, :brain: MS, TURBO kitz, exhaust and etc etc.... coilovers are prolly fxxxed.

Open the hood and snap me a couple of photos of the engine bay on the right side, and a couple of detailed photos of the shock tower area. Also snap a couple photos of the undercarriage and right side suspension. That looks very fixable from the outside.

arctct 10-23-2010 04:11 PM

I don't have the car with me... the shock tower was completely tipped in towards the engine and the frame around the passenger door was shifted back, if that makes sense... my car's kbb value is probobly only 5k or so.... plus im out of state so if the insurance compay wanted to repair it they would also have to cover food, lodging and rental car til my car is fixed... thats big $$$$. :(

Savington 10-23-2010 04:13 PM

Ah, lame. Settle with insurance, buy a clean straight shell, buy your car back, and swap all the parts. Sucks but if you do it right you'll end up with money in pocket.
