Oh man sorry to see what happened. One less beautifull 3rd gen in this world.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

SInce when have cops become mechanics, body repair techs, overall generally automotive experts in all feilds?

That really bothers me, when cops think they know about vehicle repair and use thier "power" to determine if a vehcile is safe, or how much it will cost to repair it, by just looking at it for a couple minutes on the side of the road. :roll:

/rant

That sux, looked like it was probably in decent shape too.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

what sucks the most is you didn't even get to take the dodge out. i mean it's really sad there is one less third gen. but it would have been a little sweeter if you got to take a dodge with you.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

Sorry to hear :(. You should grab all the good parts off it that you can.

Were you the last in a 3 car crash? If so, you can probably get out of it being your fault if the Durango hit the Impala first.

They only do that because if it's less than a certain amount of damage, it's a no-fault situation in most states (each insurance company would be responsible for their own insuree). In this case $3k would be in his favor, the car doesn't book that high.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

:iagree: sorry to hear about that man, that sucks. hope you get another thirdgen.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

Man that sucks man. there is no argueing here, that car is totalled. since your is a '91, how did that air bag feel? Sorry for your lost RIP Camaro

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

ouch man, glad your alright. I remember seeing some pictures you just took of your car in Appearance & Detailing.

Just so you know, your car doesnt have ABS, pumping the brakes may have helped you here. But our brakes suck anyway. Also how did the airbag feel...?

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

You implying that you thought your car had ABS brakes? Or did the Durango have ABS brakes and stop quicker than you, hence you rear ended him? Anyways, sad to see another 3rd gen die, at least it was a RS V6.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

It was still his baby so I bet he doesn't think of it that way. Sorry to hear about the Camaro. Hope you didn't get hurt at all, that looks like a nasty wreck.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

I ment that it wasn't an ultra rare 3rd gen, GM made @ 80,000 RS Camaros in 91

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

Sorry to hear about that....do NOT junk it -- you'll regret it later.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

As a owner of a RS I feel his pain. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH OWNING AN RS. He lost a thirdgen. Simple as that. He lost his car. Be more sympathetic. No it was not ultra rare but he put his money into it and reguardless of what the badges on the side say he lost a piece of U. S. auto history.

Hopefully insurance will give him enough to get another thirdgen

R.I.P. 91 RS

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

Sorry to hear about your wreck. What's going to happen to the car?

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

You guys are taking what I said all wrong, I never said there is nothing wrong with owning an RS, Christ, I even own a 91 RS. I'm giving up.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

Dude sorry about your car man. It seems that many cars within our profile cant handle a hit from an SUV. ok heres a quick story time.

I was driving a 2006 Explorer in by Tampa International Airport and there is a ton of construction and all and I was getting off a ramp and everyone in front slams on their brakes, so instictively I slam on mine, I hit no one but i had a chill that someone would hit me. Then a 2007 Cadillac CTS hit me and my SUV jumps a bit. so i get out and i have like 3 scuffs and the entire front of the CTS looked like your car. I had no police report cause the dude is like dont worry about it its no big deal so I let him go as well lol

Point of the story is that it seems like SUV have some sort of heavy duty bracing or somehting that destroys cars like ours. and again sorry for your loss.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

What? You just let him go after he rear ends you? In my beater 93 ford explorer i would consider it, but in a 06 explorer i would not...

Is there more to this story...or that was it? The guy was able to just drive his car away? You didnt get in touch with insurance or anything?

That sucks sorry to hear your car is totaled. You gonna get another 3rd gen to replace that one? If you do just keep your smashed one for parts.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

Well with my situation, there was two factors. One was that there was no damage what so ever on the explorer, the caddy was leaking radiator fluid everywhere tho... but the thing is that we are getting rid of the explorer anyways and I checked everything out on the explorer and there was pretty much no damage, the scuffs were on the towing housing.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

we don't have airbag's in the 89's

it doesn't look that bad. a new front clip (50), hood (50), fenders (35 each), radiator(50), maybe AC Stuff & paint... that will run you $250 max from a junk yard. or did your front end all get messed up? axle, etc? your metal front bumper looks just fine.

buy a roller and toss in ur engine/trans and good to go!

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

thats a '91, the GFX gave it away. the '89 is gone i'm guessing

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

yea the '89 i bought as a project that never made it.

i had disconnected the airbag cause it was starting to separate and didn't wan't it to randomly go off.

didn't have a way to get to my house so a driver from the towing company gave me $100, frame was bent.. my shock tower was in my firewall. since my car was "low" it didn't even hit the impact bar. im ok but goin through some pain. wasn't wearin the seat belt and my head hit the windshield ( got some nice whiplash), knocking the rear view off into my lap. also bent the steering wheel from me trying to hold it from flying forward. im glad the airbag didn't deploy cause i wouldve been in alot more pain right now.

workin on a 91 z 350 tpi but idk if its gonna work out due to finacial reasons.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

Sorry about your misfortune,if you decide to part the car out I would be interested in the intake. Were is Oviedo,I'm in W.P.B. but moving to Inverness.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

You guy’s gave me loads of support when my car was damaged by a driverless car and it made me feel so much better knowing that other thirdgen owners shared my pain. So I’m sorry to see your pride and joy in that state guy, she looked like a beautiful car…. She went befor her time L

Speed.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

Sorry bout ur loss man, I smashed mine up a while back but 3,600 bucks later... it's back to looking HALF decent again... But dude, WEAR YOUR SEATBELT...

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

Yes, please man be smart next time and wear your seatbelt....thats a no brainer.

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

I understand what you were trying to say, but you have to look at it from his point of view. Yeah there were a crap load of RS's made that year, but one 1 was his, so it coulda ment the world to him, IROC, Z28, RS doesn't matter.

Kinda selfish thinking now isn't it?

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

sorry about ur car man i feel ur pain on that one, im still waiting on gettin mine back from the shop, as for ur head hittin the windsheild ur damn lucky ur not seriously injured after that,wear ur seat belt man, gald ur okay

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

yea im deff wearing my seat belt from now on. ppl say everything happens for a reason. better have been a damn good reason thats all i have to say. she was my BABY...now i gotta find one to replace her. im goin v8 this time around.

looking at another 91 rs but 305 tbi switching that to carb or tpi asap if i get it

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

Deffinately wear your seatbelt! I dont wanna have to post pics of what happened to me even when I was wearing mine! It saved my life for sure.. well kinda.. but anyways.. WEAR YOUR SEATBELT!

Re: crashed my car today =[
 

Sorry to hear about ya loss.

I hate to be a jackass and ask this but, are you going to be selling parts from that car? I could really use a new dashboard.
