So this past Wednesday I was driving home from the bank when a guy driving a Ford Explorer ran a stop sign and T-boned the **** out of me. I locked up the wheels but was unable to stop before smashing into a parked car. The side airbags went off and both myself and passenger are ok, but my poor SS is well F****d Up to say the least. Now I am looking into parting it out and am interested in how much $$ I will actually get out of it. My car was a salvage title due to it hitting a guardrail in the first 4k of its life. It was repaired beautifully and now has just over 30k on it. Not sure if anyone has been in this situation before, but any ideas in the value of the car right now would be greatly appreciated.

The car: 08 Cobalt SS/TC
Mods: Magnaflow Catback, Hahn Intercooler (may be smashed), Injen Intake, High flow DP, Lowered Springs, Hurst shifter, custom ebrake w/ redline boot cover, Halo's with HID's (also probably smashed on driver side)

 

Not sure on the $$$ but glad to see your ok this seems to be a pretty safe car when it comes to accidents good thing it wasnt a few feet further back

 

looks like it hurt!

glad your ok.

pm me about the headlights...

did you hit the Honda in the rear??

 

damn the balt got effed up.

Sorry for your loss

You can plenty of part out. People always looking for odds and ends, offer out interior trim and stuff too

 

Yea they are great cars and I must say that the side airbags saved me from more pain lol. Once I hear back on the settlement I will post up whether or not she will be parted out. Thanks guys

 

And yes I was hit and pushed into the brand new Honda...

 

That's a painful sight but at least you're alive. Best of luck moving forward.

 

I got T-boned Father's day 2013. My was an 08 SRTC fully loaded with 65000+ mi the Insurance paid $12,600(they totaled it) but I didn't have a salvage title.

 

Ouch. Sorry to hear man

 

Damn that sucks man glad your ok and im down to get some parts

 

Good thing your ok, and also its a good thing the car had side impact airbags on it.

 

Glad you're ok! If you decide to part out, I'm very interested in the seat set

 

I would love the seats but to far for me i would like a fog light if one survived

 

Sorry for your loss man, But glad you and the passenger was/are okay that is a hard hit.

If you do go forward with the part out please pm me prices for the magnaflow, injen intake, Hurst shifter and ebrake handle?

 

When I had my SS/NA, I was T-boned by an excursion. My car looked like yours, insurance company gave me 4K. Your results may vary but cobalts aren't known for their resale value. I'd part it out.

With that said, how much for the following:
•sunroof frame
•wheels
•dash board filler (the part underneath the steering wheel where the sliding box goes into
•passenger side dashboard trim
•trunk liner
•trunk spare tire cover (giant piece of cardboard covering the spare)
•turbo
•front driver floor mat

 

Thanks guys, I will post up a link on this page if I decide to part it out after hearing back from insurance.

 

Hey everyone, just thought I would let you know that insurance ended up totaling it and I will not be parting it out due to the buy back price. Thanks!

 

******* shitty drivers.

 

Yea I would assume he was texting or something because he blew through the stop sign and was about to go the wrong way down the road due to it turning into a one way do not enter...

 

How much was the buy back price?

 

I believe it was $2500

 

Not bad but yeah ill just keep the money rather than going thru the hassle of parting out. What are you going to get now?

 

Talking to another guy on the forum with a ss/tc sedan and I am also looking at a 2007 wrx

 

Nice go sedan for sure
