General LSX Automobile Discussion - Wrecked the z28...

Only pic i got of it, right after the crash. Cold roads dont help when making turns, luckly i was able to avoid going head on with that fukin telephone pole. Im pretty sure its totaled. Air bags pack a punch lol Had a full car, everyone walked away fine, thank god no one was seriously injured today.

Think its totaled? Im getting more pics of in the morning when i get the nitrous and other crap outa car. Insurance guys are gonna look at sometime this week.

wow, yea thats definitely totaled. Glad to see everyone was able to walk away from that. just remember, its just a car, it can be replaced, your lives cant. Hope everything works out for you.

I kinda figured that, the drivetrain is ok though. Nothing was damaged when the tow truck driver lifted it up suspension was good etc.

So (when) the insurance company totals it (i have full coverage) will they pay off the loan or what? Any info would help me at ease. Thanks guys

normally the insurance company will just give NADA value for the car so at that point u will have to come up with the rest of the amount after the fact.....however it may have changed from last i checked.....that really sux that the car got wrecked though....we are all glad u guys are ok.....

Wow, its totalled for sure. Glad your OK

yea that sucks, good thing everyone walked away....

yeah after the crash we all played rockband 2 haha fun game

but thank you all for the concern.

I looked up NADA value and its 12k i owe about 9 so ill walk away with 4 is that what your saying or atleast how you think it works?

glad ur alright bro! buy the car back, & part it out! glad everyone is ok!

Yeah im gonna see how much there gonna give first. Im thinking about buying a cheap 93-97 v6 body and throwing everything in it actually.

how cold could the roads have been you live in florida. it was like 75 degrees today

sucks about the wreck though

it was around 59 when it happened.

so what happened? looks like you were in a neighborhood

so what happened? looks like you were in a neighborhood

plain and simple the bend turned into a nasty right hand turn (never drove on that road that often) and i had to almost cut the wheel and it fishtailed out.

Yeah, im sooooooooooooooooo fucking happy that there was no children out.

yeah i want a v6 body because the insurnace company ain't gonna like me after this :D

There are so many cars on the Florida forum cheap.There is a 99 Z-28 for $6000 w/ t-tops ,6-speed and a bunch of bolt-ons in Jupiter ,FL.

Could've been some hospitalization or worse. Atleast y'all walked away.

What's got to happen to buy your wreck back? Is it based on a percentage of the car's value? I'd imagine whatever they'd sell it to the scrapyard for.


Always wondered how that works. I drive mine every day and you never know what'll happen.

Glad all are fine! Stiil curious about how it happened and maybe how could it have been avoided. But at least ya'll cool.

I take full blame for this one, i was driving a bit faster then the speed limit 50 in a 40 and misjudged the turn (bend)

my insurance company is gonna look at it sometime this week. its got the same policy coverage as the viper so they will pay for everything that was damaged (guys yard and the pole i guess)

I ain't trying to be a d!ck, but, never drove on that road often? So, you know that nasty right hand turn is there, you got to be careful on curves, cause all it takes is one time and your life might be over. I'm glad to hear that everyone walked away. As goes for 4th. gen F-bodies, there's a kajillion cheap priced ones out there, so, take your time picking one out.

So (when) the insurance company totals it (i have full coverage) will they pay off the loan or what? Any info would help me at ease. Thanks guys

Do you have GAP Coverage?

They will typically pay off book value (closer to trade in than retail) without a fuss. Minus whatever deductable you have of course. Since you owe money on it, it is very likely your full coverage includes collision as most loans require it. If it doesn't, you will get nothing for the car. Hopefully that is the case (that you have it), I have seen people who think they have full coverage (and there is always something else you could be insured for, it never ends) and end up getting boned when they are hit by an uninsured driver.

how many tickets were writen?

0 tickets were written.

I dont have GAP, thats what my dad said.

i bought my 98 back for 1775 and got a check 1500 plus the car was paid off then i sold a bunch of parts and used some more on my current Camaro. it was worth it not only for the money but the fun of taking the car apart. and some of the cool people i met while selling/trading parts. if you have time i say buy it back.

Wow, my buddy did almost the same thing in his STi, except it was less his fault, roads were actually cold (november in illinois) and it was pouring. And it was a tree on the front lawn of some house.

He got a ticket for an estimated speed of 40 in a 25. Some dumb-ass witness watching t.v. said it looked like he was doing 60. I was sitting in the car, it was 38 mph.

also he got a ticket for improper lane usage..... whatever that means in an accident like that.

Consider yourself really lucky, no tickets helps huge with insurance struggles.

looked like a nice car, glad everyone is ok

Well my dad is an LEO (police officer) so i dont get tickets either way. Im lucky there.

Its got 62k on it only, fully loaded.

WTF? Cold roads? I look outside to what I navigate, a few inches of snow, freezing rain, crazy ass drivers who can't drive... that's just... well... all I can say is good thing you or anyone wasn't seriously hurt, but regardless of if you don't know a road, you were pretty excessive in speed for the conditions.

yup driver error on my part.

wow yea its totaled! damn that sucks:barf: are you going to get another f-body?:chug:

Yeah but, its gotta be something i can pay with cash cause my insurance wont do full coverage on a z28 again, so it looks like ill be moving down to the lt1 engines for now.

ohh shit srew the LT's! get a T/A or somthing or SS, LS1 anything! i picked up mine for 6300$ i had to do a couple of things to it but i got a good deal!
