I don't come on here often but I thought that I would share this. I completely destroyed my 09 TC coupe on the schitty roads in Ottawa today. That car meant a lot to me. Now I need to find another one to buy. Will the insurance company let me take all of my performance parts off?

 

Damn that really sucks. You're posting here, so hopefully you're alright. Any pics of the damage?
You might be able to snag parts off it quick, or buy it back for cheap once they write it off.

 

Ya I'm fine. Only my pride is injured. I have pics on my phone but have no idea how to post them.

 

Ya I guess so. Use photobucket app, or plug phone into the computer, that's all I know about that.
How bad is it?

 

Depends on your insurer some will some won't, the best way to find out is ask

 

All windows broken. Every single body panel damaged. Roof dented in. Intercooler destroyed. Headlights ripped off. Its bad

 

Wow!! You flip or something? Sounds awful

 

Glad your ok
post some pics tho

 

Sad to hear that. Car is replaceable though. If you don't have your car insured for mods, then you can take them off IF you put the factory ones back on. If it is insured, then don't touch your mods, unless you want trouble .

 

Glad you're alright. Post pics to photobucket and paste the image code here.

 

That sucks Glad your Okay though. the roads in ottawa are really bad in winter, would like to see some pictures though..

 

wow, glad you walked away man. Hope you can find another one that fits the bill!

 

Damn where in Ottawa?

 

sorry to hear buddy! I'm from Ottawa and winters can be harsh there. glad you're ok! you can always buy my sedan

 

Pull your mods off and replace with the factory components. Anything missing the insurance company can deduct value for. Most people don't have optional equipment coverage on their policy and we don't give dollar for dollar on mods anyway. Much better off swapping it for your own parts. You probably don't even need to reinstall the parts, just toss em in the trunk. My two cents as an adjuster.

 

driving to fast for conditions?

 

The roads aren't that bad...unless you were driving in freezing rain...then you're asking for trouble. Shitty either way though...

 

Well they gave me $11800 for my 09 with 147 000km on her. And they are letting me keep all of my bolt ons. And they are paying me full value for my DXD clutch and Aluminium flywheel! Thats an extra $1500 on top of the $11800. So I went car shopping today. Bought a 2010 SS coupe. Red. 50300km for 12 grand. Stock except for GMS1 and HID headlights. Its absolutely mint. Has the RPD aswell. Already emailed trifecta for a quote!! I think I made out ok all in all.

 

Wow... that's awesome haha

 

I'm not ganna lie, if I got my car to the point I couldn't salvage her, I'd let it go and go back to a V8 in a Camaro. my $.02. But I have never stayed with the same vehicle twice, to include motorcycles, except the ZX-10R.

 

pics of wrecked car, and new SS?

 

I'll make a side by side album of the two when She gets picked up next week!

 

At least I didn't buy a focus ST lol.

 

I have no idea how to use photobucket on a tablet

 

yeah that cars totalled lol
