Exclamation No more rx7 for me...

So i was in an accident i posted another thread about... well i just bought my rx7 it hadn't even finalized yet. In the end they are taking my car with in a day or 2... im fucked for the time being hopefully they can help me get another vehicle. i tried to have my lean holder let me keep the car but they wont allow it.... i dont feal that well right now i wish i kept my 1st gen and bought the fc just to cruze.... life is cruel and now im carless rx7less lifeless. if there is any hope maybe i can get another fc from a dealer or an fd but i dont think so ill get stuck with like some shitty SUV or a ******* honda!

im not sure of wut happend bro, but i have been in two accidents and i also work at two auto shops. Did they declare it totalled? if so then you should be able to use the insurance money to buy it back real cheap. and have money left over to fix it....my rx7 has a salvaged tittle, but i got it fixed and it runs great, and i have the extra money saved towards a swap. it doesn't sound right that your lean holder won't let u have the ability to keep the car. it is your car after isn't it?

aight hope things work out.

WTF?~what do you mean they wont allow it???
Ok are they going to give you back your 2 payments that you made and whatever other cash you gave them.
.........a lean holder cant just take your car because you have an accident!!!!
What insurance company do you have that look through the classifieds to see what the value of your car is?
Take that ***** to court !!!!
Take alot of pics b4 they take the car..............get alot of estimates on fixing it...

They declared it a total loss so its not cost efficient to repair it after my 500 doller deductible they could only give the lien holder 2k. i still am clueless on whats going on. my car is fantastic all original with 91k miles on it the interior is great the body was decent so was the paint all it needed was a buff... when they appraised my car they didn't go off of kelly blue book which would go for a lil over 5g. i want this car but i wont be pissed if i don't owe 2 grand for the car when the accident wasnt my fault plus the insurance company sent me a letter saying it was 100% the other drivers fault. I got sucker punched for doing the right thing and reported it... lol wtf. i couldn't buy the car back if i wanted im getting married lol man. id trade my gf for my fc any day lol ok maybe not.... ill find out tomorrow whats going on by my lein holder the auto sales people and my ins.... Wish me luck cause right now i need it b4 i flip.

WAIT A MINUTE!!!!!
you're telling me that YOUR insurance company said it was the other persons fault...but they wont go after his insurance company to fix your car??
Whats the company " Chicos Bail Bonds and Insurance"?
How much was the car that they will only give them $2000 and will you still owe on the car?

Talking

the car was appraised for 2500 dollars i found out they went off of 88 mazda rx7 coups first of. the adjuster appraised the damage at Net total 1784.28 with my 500 doller deductible in there. that's 71% of the ACV (actual cash Value) of my car. Progressive is trying to buy my car for 2k to my lien holder and i would have a remaining balance of 2,259.00 dollars i would owe plus no vehicle plus i would have to finance another one with this remaining balance in the loan.

My dealer Dibs auto sales heard about it of course and called me, i went over today to say whats up and after they immediately saw the damage they were furrose at my ins. company for try to scrap the car aka total loss. Dibs helped me file a claim with the ins. company of the man at fault since progressive is giving me the shaft and forgot the lube so.... Tomorrow im getting a quote from a place on North Dutton . i had to contact my lein holder and they are telling me im going to be cut a check from one of the ins. companies don't know who; its a co check that i will sign over to the lein holder who will fix my car. so that's all i know so far. Here are the pics of the dammage to my car. PEOPLE WITH WEAK STOMACH I URGE YOU NOT TO LOOK THE IMAGES YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE ARE EXTREMELY DISTURBING! lol?
<br>
See on the rear end of the car where the wheel well and the door meet... yeah that's what made them try and say the car is a total loss... i leave it up to you for your judgment. Should i scrap it lol

For one im not crying about the dent its the fact my insurance company is trying to take my 6 thousand dollar car by paying 2k to my lein holder and i get to pay for the rest of the bill with no car... THAT IS WHY IM "crying" besides the fact my car was all original with 90 thousand miles... ***
