Sorry about your bad luck. Hopefully no one is seriously injured.
I've heard somewhere that Carstar is excellent at alignment work...I don't know about the body work though.

some one on the forums works at 427 auto collision, cant remember who. But he was talking about the amazing work they do, and all the pics he posted were Ferraris, r8's etc

^ I now recall the same thread...yes they appear to be excellent. I also recall that, because they are so good and in demand, that they are very busy and has a pretty long waiting line...but worth it.

yo, as per 4DGS's comment, I'm in senior management for CARSTAR Canada.

CARSTAR Markham is one of the best shops in our network and one of the best in the GTA having undergone nearly a $250k re-design (not just a reno) in the last 24 months.

Go there, ask for Jim, get a 5 minute tour and you will keep your car there.

It's as progressive as collision centres get in Canada right now.

Who is your insurance company?

I'll likely know if CARSTAR Markham is preferred with them or not.

I can provide other recommendations but onyl through PM

Thanks guys, nope no one was hurt luckily.

I'm wondering if it'll be a write off although my car is completely drivable, passenger side seat airbag deployed and upper side bag deployed as well, plus all the damages could add up to at $9K as per collision center cop. My car is prob worth $12K as per autotrader.

Anyway if they do fix it, anyone heard anything about Florida garage? they're super close to me but I've only seen a handful of reviews....
