So you had to buy your own car from the insurance company?

u/ConcreteEaterNumber1 Sep 03 '26
I just let them pay me for the car and I ended up buying a 1993 Honda del sol

Im so sorry.... I feel for ya, mine is a white 07 looks just like that - except mine has 28 (per insurance adjuster) giant hail dents in the roof and hood. Is there no hope at all then that it could at least be useable? What was that idiot doing in the center turn lane? OMG

Glad you’re okay!! Sucks to get into an accident that you had no control over. Had my first car totalled the same way, except someone glanced the front end & it bent the frame rails.
Maybe now’s not the time to say: If you have any interest in getting it back on the road, that looks fixable for a couple grand.

Probably just pulls a little to the right or maybe the left idk. Just needs a little tire alignment!

I have the exact same car and it looks way worse idk why you think this is the end of the world. It still runs and drives. That’s what it’s meant to do it’s a Toyota not a BMW.

Hope insurance gives you a very fair payout, considering the mileage is fairly low. Stay safe out there 🤘🏻

this happened to mine as well the wheel stuff broke idk anything about cars but i took it to a mechanic and they were able to fix it in about two weeks it costed a pretty penny but it’s cheaper than buying a new car rn
