My 240 is Gone, lady pulled out if front of me.

[240Knightrider]

Maybe you have heard of my recent encounter with the lady that ran me off the road on monday. http://www.nissaninfiniticlub....wpost

Well today I was on my way home from talking to a friend that works at a body shop (kind of Ironic). Well this lady needed to turn into wendys and didnt see me coming so she decided to go and I ran into her. my whole front end is all smashed in and one of my pulleys is messed up and a bunch of other stuff, not to mention all my stuff went flying forward (newtons law of motion). I dont know which pulley cause I couldnt get the hood open. now its lonely at the impound lot waiting for me to pick it up tomorrow and take it to my buddys shop. I kinda hope they total it so I can get a new 240 with less miles on it.



Ill have pictures tomorrow hopefully when I get to her.

[Touchdown038]

Ouch.

I'm sorry, man. I cringe every time I read one of these threads.

[Altiman94]

sorry to hear that. Hopefully you can get a nicer one after its all said and done.

[Dattebayo]

i ve crashed 2 times, and i managed not to damage the frame at all. tough little car, doesnt take much to squish the front though. thats why flip ups suck. (click on my sig page two for damage)I hope you find a manual f/b somwhere you can get cheap and use the rest of the money for upgrades!

[AZhitman]

I'm sorry KR... Glad you're OK man.

[chukis13]

i just lost my first car, a zenki s13 fb same way about a month ago. guy in oncoming traffic turned left on a yellow in the rain, fag... the middle of the front end to the passenger door hings is smashed in... i'm tearing it apart now, using some good parts like the seats in my new chuki thang thang. its sexier, my old one had bad paint but its got madd sentimental value. oh well, just can't get too attatched.

Well this lady needed to turn into wendys and didnt see me coming so she decided to go and I ran into her..

Thank you for admitting guilt

Sincerely,The insurance company

Seriously tho.. I hope you didn't tell the ins. company YOU hit her.. Even though your vehicle did suck her tail pipe, it was her vehicle that caused the accident, and her fault for TRYING TO RACE DER UBER 240 er her fault for pulling out when it was unsafe.

You should tell them "this ****** ***** hit my ******** car because she can't ******* drive for ****. She ******* pulled out right in ******* front of me, i'm so pissed off. That ***** better learn to ****** drive. ******* ***** *****, ****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

(note: instead of saying "this asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisk" just use BLEEP)

On a side note, that sucks dude.. hope you get a better 240 if they decide to total it =/

That doesnt compuite fuzion.

She is the one initiating the turn and if he is coming down the road it doesnt matter who it whom, she failed to yield right of way.Case closed in states that allow 100% fault she will be 100%.

Chukis and Knightrider sorry for both your luck.

Fred...

[fuzion]

Yar.. I had thought she turned right onto the street and he ended up rear ending her o_O

[[Zero-S]]

Thank god that didn't happen in florida. No fault states can be bad when it comes to things like that...

[Chingon]

Pics!!!!

ps: i'm sorry about your loss.

[WeldingHank]

anybody turning must yeild to ANY traffic.

[POS_S13]

you have the worst luck man, good to hear you're alright though

[UTWarrenG]

Oh, my neck!

Oh, my back!

Oh, my....uh....distributor cap which in a human is located just to the right of your esophagus!

MEDIC!where's my pain and suffering check!?

lol, sorry couldn't help myself....hope everything's ok with you...at least your gf wasn't in the car with you this time....

That ***** will remember the cost of a hamburger for the rest of her life.....the most expensive burger she never got to eat

[bcar240]

that sucks, sorry to hear about it. one of the news channels just had a special on aging drivers behind the wheel, I think you just made their point. but in some states, for simplicitys sake, the policy is to initially claim whoever "hit" the other person is at fault. i think it is the stupidest rule, but I don't think it is that way in SC. anyway, the important thing is that you are ok.

Quote »not to mention all my stuff went flying forward [/quote] this reminds me of when I had my front end accident, I could almost pay for the damages with all the change that flew out from under the seat.Keep us updated on what you decided to do

[rousie13]

Sorry to hear about the car. Have you picked up the car yet?? If, so, how bad is it?

[Silvia2b]

how are you feeling? I mean other feeling sick because your car is all messed up. Just think if you hadn't been wearing a seatbelt (Right?). Sorry, hope you can find a really nice new one with low miles if the insurnace company cashes you out. Good luck!

[240Knightrider]

Hey, State farm Totaled it and when I went to go get the rest of my stuff out they had already taken her to the salvage yard. But Im going tomorrow morning to take pictures of the damage. I miss it, everytime I see another 240 in my area I want to cry . Ok back to normal. Yeah insurance totaled it and I dont know how much im getting, it was the other ladys fault, Thank God. Ill post pics as soon as I get home, thanks everyone for your support. Im really not that sore right now but some have said it takes a couple of days to come out.

[PantherRacer]

yea man we all with you 100% but seriously....y'all need ta drive safe so there's a 240 left for me!but driving safe still doesn't account for all the jack-***** out on the road. Glad you're safe. may all the totalled cars live on as someone elses dream by their wonder full parts :icesangel

[PhaneSoul]

id say buy it back, my friends taurus, his dad rear ended sum 1 and it was worse then urs, went all the way to the radiator.... he fixxed it all for around 700$.... id say try and fix it, the toughest thing looks like the pullies...

or buy it back and sell it to 420_240sx for 50$ more... i bet it wont ost much, looks like u need a new front bumper, 2 fenders, mebe a new radiator, new front brace, and the pully work, and new covers for the lights if not new brackets too.... bunno how much thats gonna cost, but it dont sound like much.... i would work on it if i had the money/knowledge/tools

[downshift]

damn they got another one of us bro. glad your ok, but the car *sniff* its damaged. oh well good luck wit the ins co. and stuff like that.

[240SXer]

Make sure you tell them how good it ran, and how you put a lot of money into it. They won't give you your total value but they'll give you a bit more usually. Also, tell them these cars are hard to find and yours was in really good condition, they'll try to give you bluebook, which is a lot lower than you can actually find a 240 these days. They have to give you fair market value. Which Bluebook does not always represent, go to autotrader.com and print out all the expensive 92 240sx's you can find (in any area), then show them that they are similar and that's how much it will cost you to buy another. Using this method I was originally offered $5,700 for my truck, and I got it up to $7,000. My truck was a 1997 Automatic 4cyl (KA24E) w/174k miles. However we had it since it was new and it was in perfect condition (aside from the transmission slipping from me racing). In any event, I couldn’t have gotten anywhere near 7k for it actually selling it. A dude in a big Van hit me, it smashed into my bed because my truck was lowered 4” in the rear. The bed hit the cab, and ya… bent bent bent, everything. The body shop said for them to get it perfect they’d have to buy a new truck practically. But they could get it (decent) for 2000. So I went from a 1997 Nissan Pickup w/auto and 174k miles, to a 1995 Nissan 240sx SE w/117k miles I was happy. I miss me truck though Get all you can, belive me, 240s aren't cheap these days (if you plan on getting another).

[jdmfreak]
