Default My baby is totaled!!!

Damn, loaned the car to my mom so she could go shopping and this is the result. Im just chilling at home and starting to wonder where my mom is, so i pick up the phone and call her. The first she says to me is: son. I crasher your lexus. Damn. What happened was that a yaris drove in front of here and my mom tryed to turn away, but it was to late. She hit the yaris and went for the curb.The yaris looks like a can after the crash. The air bags didnt even open in the lexus(talking about a safe car). Well, I am just glad that nobody is hurt and the insurance company will do the rest. The car is totaled. There is no chance i will be taking it repaired. Here are some pics.

Well if my mom was gonna get into a accident, i would rather have her crash my lexus than her neon. Main thing shes all right, cars can always be fixed.

Ouch,, sorry to see this. Although there is a good amount of damage, doesnt look quite totaled to me. One of my fellow NELOC members, Cathafer, took a very hard hit in the rear of her car and it actually wound up buckling the roof line. Was quite a bit of damage, but was repaired nicely. Anyway,, glad to know that your mom was safe,, and was not hurt.

Sorry to hear about the crash, but that doesn't look anywhere near totalled. Report back after the insurance company has a look at it.

sorry to see that. But this car might not totaled.

your car got to worth more than 20K. And the damage doesn't look like is more than that, unless the engine is damaged..

Bah, I dont think its totalled. And if it is.... you can get an IS-F!

Hate to sound like a vulture, but if the car is totalled and you have wood trim, get the window switches. I will buy them off you!
