Default My beloved sc300 gone.

Yesterday night i was dropping off a friend, at a stop sign i looked left and right didnt see anyone so i took the turn and next thing i know it there was a truck , a titan clipped the front of the car. Couldnt believe it happened to me right i barely got the car for a month or so gone. I walked away with a burn to my arm and a bump on my head. I only had liability so i wont be getting any money, i wish it was a dream but it wasnt.










Im not sure if i should part it out or just sell it as a whole. What do you guys think I should do to get the most money out of it?

Damn sorry about your car bro. Parting it it would definitely give you more cash than to sell it as a whole.

To the OP: I'm glad you're okay. Is that the truck that hit you in the last pic? It looks like it barely has any damage.

sorry for your loss, but glad to see you came out ok. parting it out would probably be the best choice

That sucks big time!!! I can tell you loved your SC. It’s clean inside and out. It’s a good thing he did not hit your drivers side door like that. Good luck parting it out. Wish I had some cash because I love the black leather!!
