Default Got in a wreck this morning! This sucks.

Well i was on my way to work this morning when a guy decides to take a left out of a school and right into the whole right side of my GS! I was getting ready to either trade or sale it for the LS. Both top side airbags deployed and my front right, back right, and rear quarter is damaged. Along with some scraps on the wheel and my dash light is on. What a great way to start the day ugh!

Thanks guys i am ok, i was just a little shocked b/c i wasn't expecting it. I was probably 2 miles from my house. I know most accidents happen close to home and that was the case this morning for sure.

On the bright side if you wanted to trade the car anyway, hopefully you will end up with a better settlement from insurance than you would have gotten as a trade assuming that it's totaled.

If not, then - well - that just sucks, you might want to rethink your plans to trade up for another few years.

Sorry for your misfortunes but glad you're ok. Sounds like there may be enough damage to total the car if is an early 3GS model ('06/'07). You could get a higher payout than selling or trading in your car. Good luck.

if you wanted to trade it in, then no harm done. Insurance is usually good about giving your money's worth.


the idiot didn't look left before turning left?
how wide was the street ?

Living in AZ, I have to ask - did the other driver have insurance?
