Sorry about the 3 posts - here's the story

Aight, so I'm at Woodfield Mall in Illinois, and I'm cruisin' around looking for a parking space. Well, I am going down one of the isles the RIGHT way, when this lady in a huge conversion van swings in the wrong way and hits my drivers side door, smashing it in, plus breaking the side mirror. Then, instead of putting her car in reverse and backing out of me, she turns her can and smashes the drivers side fender! STUPID IDIOT!!!! Luckily, she has insurance, plus, I can buy the parts online for under $400.00 before the paint job, so it's not all that bad. Just ****es me off case the car was cleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeean beforehand. Just needed to vent.

Some people have all the luck I love my Maxima, but I keep hoping someone will have a little fender bender with me and total it out so I can get a new car........aka: 5th gen turbocharged

That does suck though. At least you'll come out with some money for mods.

shouldn't hope to get into an accident dude, sometimes the car isn't the only thing damaged....

btw...5th gens are evil...keep your 4th gen j/ks
why not just turbo your 4th gen?

Right, but the insurance company is sending ME a check for $1200, which was the quote from the body shop...if I only spend $500 fixing my car, that leaves me with $700....can get even MORE mods for my car.........or maybe pay off a credit card bill.......I think mods

i know how you feel, i live in IL. and often go to woodfield mall, the parking there is hectic and the people can't drive for sh*t in there. its good your getting money out of it though, my last maxima i crashed i got 11k from insurance and only owed the bank 7 for mine, thats why i got a max that was 2 years newer and a lot nicer

my advice is next time at woodfield, pay close close attention, people cant drive, even though its not as good i often go to charlestown or stratford just to avoid all the traffic and clutter.
