Default Need some opinion.. Totaled? or NOT?





I got Hited and Run on "Friday of 13th" and spun on the freeway... scary the ____ out of me.. and I've also hitted other two cars... now what my question is from the picture you seen would it be totaled or not? the airbag didnt come off, and the engine can still start but the weird thing is the car will not stull and it kept in idle if i let go my clutch while having my stick in 1st gear, does that sound normal to you guys? I neeed some help...

Ouch. Sorry to hear that, but glad you're ok.

I would take the hood, right fender, and bumper/grille off and then look at it from there. Looks like your suspension might be screwed though.

Sorry man at least you're all right. Id say its probably totaled but i cant say for sure. It all depends on the frame and suspension.

Total:

Because the passenger side axle looks bent. If it cost more than half the car it's totaled. I think the axle is the only problem there.

Not-Totalled:

Because it's up to you if u wanna change your whole axle front end. If u havent mod just get a new c ar, your car now will prolly not be the same after its repaired.
