    Another One Bites The Dust...

    Rear-Ended by a dumbass on the cellphone...

    Probably my favorite car as of yet, ran great, looked great, super clean... Now sitting in my driveway with a Salvage Title. Not sure what to do with it now. May part, may sell it as a salvage... Don't have time or resources to repair/rebuilt title it. Sad to see this happen.

    Pic about 2 months ago.. nice and cleaned up:



    And finally... Can't believe this is all it takes to total a car:








    Yup.

    Ideas // Suggestions would be great... Otherwise this month she's getting parted or sold for salvage.

      Sad. I thought the reds were done getting smashed up. I guess I was wrong! Still, it doesn't look like too much damage. Just looks like body work to me. Get that bad boy fixed and keep her.

            Sucks to hear man, at least you made it out alright.

            I guess you would be in agreeance with me when I say that all in-car cell phone use should be completely abolished.

              I'm looking for a builder. How much do you want for it?

                I'll buy your lip and maybe your rims if you are going to part it/sell some stuff to fund repairs ;)

                Seriously, though, that sucks. Seems like everyone's cars are getting hit or stolen...

                  Pound it back out, hit it with some paint and drive it!

                    WAY TO MANY TOTALS in the past month alone. If this rate continues, there will be no e30's left by Christmas and what the fuck will I ask for then.

                        If the rear quarter panels escaped getting creased and only the very back is damaged, I would keep it and get it repaired. That's way too nice of an E30 to let a small bit of damage like that render it to the scap heap.

                        Its worth saving :-)

                              Welp,

                              Part of the problem is that now it's got a salvage title so I cant drive it without getting it to pass the Retitle inspection. Also, the rear quarters are slightly puckered from the accident.

                              Haha, Urban Camo! Already had an Urban Camo Jetta Coupe... "Urban Assault"

                              I'm considering selling it whole as a salvage, based on my estimate of parting it out... Be a great fixer project, like I said, it needs that bodywork and its ready to rock and roll..
