Thanks man, not sure if imma get another 2GS... as much as i love the car and the ease of working on the car... its just a lot of upkeep to keep the car running like a champ... especially if you start modding the suspension n going force induced.

depending on what insurance says honestly. if they deem it totaled due to the cost:value of the car... then imma just part it ASAP and get a different car... been wanting a Miata for fun/track use.

its gonna be hard to get the door flushed and your gonna need a brand new door front and back and the frame itself is messed up.

pick up a s2000!

its ok the way i think about it your making GS more rare

Cliff notes:
- Accident Tuesday Nov 30th 5:40pm
- Other car ran the red, well the be more accurate he rolled the red n then gassed it.
- I was already at the intersection going 30-40 mph no time to react really since i wasnt sure if there was a car to my left.
- Tboned spun, n yea

depending on what insurance says... kbb values this car at $5.5k... MIGHT be parting it..

including supercharger, bags, sway, brakes, toe arm, RCAs, etc keep n eye out i guess.

2nd 2GS400 bites the dust,

damn that sucks bro. i too just got hit yesterday by someone running a red light but it wasn't as bad as this. hope all goes well for you!

ok the partout might be sooner than expected so keep an eye out.. most likely be tearing it apart this weekend and having everything set aside so i can put this back to stock... minus a few things (Brakes and mufflers) since i dont have stock ones to put back at the time being.
