Oh no! I'm sorry to see that man, your car was so incredible. >frown.gif>

Were you ok?

Is the car totalled? It looks like it might be fixable.

New Toyota project coming soon...
Let me be the second to say....holy crap. >frown.gif> Most importantly, are you in ok shape?

Im really sorry to see that happen to such a nice car. I hope something works out with all this, and if i were you id try to repair it or save the engine and get another Celica and go for round two.

no freaken way man sorry to hear about it...hope u can fix it
Sorry to see that. But man, if something like that let me down I would never be able to get the GT4. Just get a fender and a door and repair if possible. Anyway, i hope everything turns up fine.
tisk tisk david.... and you should try to fix it... but if you dont I want the IC, piping, and the AFM adapter >biggrin.gif>


having such a car in the crowded LA area makes you go to bad dangerous areas >frown.gif> and once again you better fix it... you have had the car for a grand total of probably 2 months with it actually running!!!! BAD BAD DAVID!

no way man. you're car was the nicest coupe on this site. damage looks pretty extensive but you're atleast gonna try to fix it right? don't give up so easy, ToYCeLi8 will rise again.
That sucks man... That car was awesome.

You're probably still upset but let me know if you're parting it out. I want first dibs on some of the st205 body parts that I need to finish my front end. Need a bunch of little stuff that's probably not damaged or is minor. Let me know... email me at ahastings@darwinsc.com

- aba
sory for the loss...but if it is not totaled, I would say gut your car and buy another celica. A cheap 94 or something and transplant that engine. There doesn't seem to be that much damage(compared to some of the other celi accidents we have seen on this site). Good Luck!
Sorry to see that your car got messed up but thankfully you're ok. From looking at the pics I really don't think it's totalled. Maybe if the frame is bent(if it is you could get it on a straightner), but, as much money and time as you've have into it I think you should get it fixed.



If the insurance company asks you if you want to buy your car back,DO IT!

>mad.gif> Just keep in mind that "it could be worst",your next move should be how to fix the car....not how to bare it.
We can start a poll asking the members what you should do now but the result would prolly be 90% to fix it. Anyway, you will decide because we dont know exactly what kind of damages it has or what kind of insurance repayment you are looking at.

And just to have a bit of fun with you and some other coupe owners, scrap and start over with a real Celica - a hatch. >wink.gif>

and before people start flaming me... i am only kidding, dont forget I have a Curren parked next to my GT4. >biggrin.gif>
.... and i have a 3SGTE engine to swap it.
dude, it could be worse... i read the topic and was like "holy **** someone finally died" but then opened it and it was just your car. still sucks though man. after all the time and money, id say fix it if its feasable. to me, it doesnt look like there is any damage to the a pillar, just the door, fender, bumper (>frown.gif>), and maybe hood.... good luck with whatever you decided to do...

ok. Here's an update.

Me and my budy convinced David to fix his car. Actually, we are goin to take care of it. Both David and his car are in great hands. The damage isn't as bad as i thought it was.

The frame where the door hinges are, is bent just a LITTLE. Once again, minor.

Besides that, we just have to replace the door, fender, winshield, and strut cause i think it bent.

Dont worry everyone. Weather David likes it or not, i'll make sure that the celica smokes again.


In the words of David..........

HAPPY BOOSTING.

OMG that sucks!

Your car is one of my favorite ones on this site

luckily the damage doesn't look like it too bad, diffently would get the frame looked at though and if its off either have it straightened or total it and get another celi.

Best of luck to ya and keep us posted

>wink.gif> hopefully u'll be boostin soon >wink.gif>

NEVERSTOP

99 project version 3.0.. hello SEMA 2010 =)
>frown.gif> >frown.gif> >frown.gif> >frown.gif> Crying....poor car. @ least you might be able to fix it.
It looks totaled... and here's why.

The Windshield is cracked which tells me that whole A pillar was compressed and i don't know automotive steel to bend back after something like that.. i would guess more is tweaked on that car then meets the eye, and unless his insurance covers the hood and bumper mods, and fresh paint, they may just cut him a check...
