Default Poor Car =(

I got my 92 SC400 thinking when i get more financially established, i can mod it like crazy. I've been goin thru the forum learning how to fix the little stuff like adding the floppy cup holder n replacing the door handles n stuff. Last week, it was attacked by an SUV n now with the 3rd adjusters review, it's official... total-loss R.I.P

Damn... sorry to see that... You might want to keep the front lip just in case you decide to buy another. Hope you get a good settlement. Never settle for less tho.

Do you live in the San Fernando Valley area? I seen an Sc400 with very similar damage on the back of a flatbed on the 5N freeway a couple weeks ago

If you are local, sell me the lip :P

Thanks guys. i'm ok, car is built well. I actually traded a ford focus for this car. if i still had the focus then there'd be some serious injuries, those things aren't that strong at all lol

@ bender25: don't think that was me since the accident was local to me... unless the driver was driving on the 5 to kill time lol

@ texan_176: lol u noticed the tires huh? yeah, I got the set for a little more than $800 at costco =P

I wanted to try to do a part out, or sell the car as a parts car, but my apt manager is getting annoyed that it's in the lot so a tow truck is coming to pick it up on mon. i'll get what i can take off w/ my very limited skills (it took me 2 days to put in the floppy cup holder even w/ the direction, don't know y =P ). Don't know if i can keep the tires though since i sent the receipt for them into insurance to try to raise the value of the car. if anybody know otherwise, let me know.
