At least it was the other guys fault...are you going to need a new car?

You can delete the post yourself...see the "edit/delete" post option in the bottom right corner of the post.

Ouch.. sorry man.. Just be glad everyone was okay. People make mistakes, and our beloved cars are the victim. Be glad it was your bumper that was crushed instead of your head. Plastic is easy to fix.

if you do repair it, I'll give you good prices on any parts that are useable on mine. I assume your right side was toast, so probably won't be able to use much of what I've got.

lemme know if you need anything though.
Again, sorry to hear about your ride. Just think the best of it.. little shoulder pain, couple doctor visits, VOILA! $2000 in your pocket for mods.

actually my neck does kind of hurt. it was the left side. the suspension is way messed up. the wheel is about 5 inches further back then it should be. Somehow the 3rd brake light was ripped off from force and some flying debri or something put a big scrape in my back bumper. the other car caught on fire also...

Well man, hope everything turns out okay.. if your suspension's bent up that bad, I'm pretty certain they'll total the car.

I they don't, I've got my left BMW headlight if you need it.

hey block,

sorry to hear about the accident. That sucks -- I hope your car makes it. Glad to hear you're not being deemed at fault

That's why I always stop when there's a yellow if I see someone trying to make a left turn.. whether or not they have the RIGHT to go, usually they're desperate and they will try. And whether or not it'd be their fault or mine, I don't want my car crunched. =)

on the other side of the coin, when I'm making a left turn, I always expect the people coming straight to try to run through the yellow.

good luck.

BTW the 3rd Gen MOTM curse has extended to celebrities. Niki Taylor, supermodel extraordinaire, is seriously injured after an accident in which she was a passenger in a 93 maxima.

Funny that even celebrities recognize the exquisiteness of the 3rd Gen Maxima.
