wow, did they spin you around and cause you to hit something or someone else? i'm afraid to say it, but does that total it out?

SDot82

iTrader: (2)

Yeah when they hit me it made me fish tail and slam into the back of a work van. And this will be total from the looks of it.

That really suxs man. Take all that you can scap from the car and get another shell. Drop everything you have in totaled car into the new car.

Ouch that sucks. And it was a 5 spd? Damn.

As long as your ok is the important thing.

Looks like it can be a track car now. Damage isnt excessive where it cant be driven.

SDot82

iTrader: (2)

Yeah the other guy is at fault and got the info. The bad thing is I have a 3.5 that I was about to swap in next weekend.

iTrader: (1)

Hey, get another max (if you can find one with a blown engine, do that it'll save you $$) and put the 3.5 in that one.

Fre$h_TurK

SO MANY MAXIMAS GETTIN F'ED UP LATELY !! i hate it

nismology

iTrader: (8)

Sorry to hear about that. Hope everything works out for the best and you get another 4th gen!!


BTW, are those homemade red/clears or others?

99se5speed

iTrader: (8)

WoW!!! The roof is gone so that's def a total cause that's frame damage. Like the others have said find a blown 4th gen and swap out the engine...

loverholic

iTrader: (3)

thats not a bad thing...thats a good thing in a way...with the money your are going to get from the settlement, u can get a good 4th gen with a blown engine (real cheap at the auction) and drop your 3.5 in there, that leaves you with extra ash to do more stuff.....

but i am sorry about this though...like we all say..once you're ok...lol
just shake it off and go 4th gen hunting.....

The homemade red/clears

goldtooth

iTrader: (56)

if im not mistaken you have teh 00VI? quick question, how did you have ur IACV mounted? and how big was the opening for it from the IACV to the IM?

ethnic6

iTrader: (5)

just put a little elbow grease on that and u'll be fine... as long as ur safe

MDeezy

iTrader: (27)

Oh my damn . . .


I want to say they might not total it. The Doors took a lot of damage and they can be replaced. The Roof would need some work as well as the quarter panel on the drive side, and by the side skirts on the pass side.

It might be very close to being totaled. Either way I hope they either repair it to perfection, or you get to pull your mods and they give you enough cash to purchase another Max.

Best of luck

Car was very clean indeed. Sorry to hear/see but glad you're OK.

Fre$h_TurK

what .... is he parting out?... i thought he wouldnt.....i have a question
can u part out and sell items after u get money from insurance for them

matts95max

iTrader: (11)

I dont think he is going to part out, i am suprised the windows on the pass side didnt shatter? if they do total and you come out with some money, theres hope for a cheap(under $1k) 4th gen. I bought mine and so have others on here to fix up. oh and you are smiling in the pic of pass side..reflection in the windows

jmeister

iTrader: (12)

I'm just kinda giving him hell is all, he called me after it happened. If they total it out he could buy it back cheap then part it out or whatever he decides.

Right don't know what i'm going to do yet, waiting on the insur. company. And I am considering buying it back if I find another 4th gen max.

Gold: I am using the 5th gen IACV but most people mount it near the VIAS.

shavedmax

iTrader: (6)

that sucks, but you werent hit at 35 mph. this is the 6th gen being hit at 31 mph, they test is conducted by the insurance institute for hwy safety


they didnt conduct the test on 4th or 5th gens, only frontal impacts.

SDot82

iTrader: (2)

I was intially hit at 35 mph but I fish tail (slowing me down some) for at least 20 feet before the side of my car hit a van.

You are lucky to be ok. The good news is that you can always get another ride. That was a clean 4th gen though.

maxima_kenny96

iTrader: (10)

Sorry to hear that I know its depressing. You'll find something better im sure.

Bobo

Sorry about your misfortune.

Be on the look out for a clean, loaded 4th Gen.

Get one with a sunroof next time. I suspect you didn't have leather either. Both are a must IMHO.

ihatemymax

WIPE THAT SMILE OF YOU FACE..... you just lost a MAX... i see the reflection in teh window.

iTrader: (1)

I think it's more like squinting in pain than smiling

Sorry for your loss. Don't lose hope or your desire to do the swap. Find another 4th gen and continue moving forward!

SDot82

iTrader: (2)

Its more of a smile of "I can't believe that this happened to me and walk away without a mark."

nguyen925

i wish mine was totaled, then i could get a 5 speed :[. glad nothing happened to you. gl with the next car though!

JClaw

iTrader: (17)

Yeah and you might even have enough dough for a paint job.

1k for a blown one + 1k for the 3.5 swap and the rest for a nice paint job color of your choice. Is that a deal or what?
