hit a hole, will it total my car?
hit a hole, will it total my car? I was pulling into a parking lot, and i had a huge hole at the enterance that wasnt visible.
it broke my radiator.
tore my front bumper
the front suspension is laying on the ground torn off the car.
damage and tore alot of wires leading to the headlights and other electrical parts.
alot of the plastic intake and misc pieces under the car.
from this discription, do you think it could have frame
damage?
will this total it?
i am claiming it on the gas station insurance company.
could i ask for depreciation?
any advice will help.

A friend of mine had someone back onto his hood in a bigass pickup truck. The trailer hitch actually broke his radiator from the top. It's only like $240 from GM Parts Direct. Really, really, really easy to install, also.
The suspension pieces are what would worry me. No matter what, it will be an extensive repair. It's good that the gas station is covering it for you. I probably would have gone ballistic. We'd have to see pics or something to give you a rough estimate from our non-professional opinions, haha.
At least from what it sounds like, you weren't hurt. That's the important thing.

An 01 Z-06 is in the $25-30K+ range on resale price.. I highly doubt the car would be totalled.
