I need to arrange pick up from the tow lot to the body shop tomorrow. I'll take pics at the body shop and post them.

I feel bad for the chick who hit me, but I sure as hell don't feel bad for her insurance company . Cops were called, so all the good stuff was collected, there will be a police report and all so I'm not going to have any problems there.

Same insurance company (state farm for me and her) which sorta sucks. State farm has a policy of no diminished value payouts. I'm researching that a bit now. Unfortunately, minnesota is not one of the states that requires diminished value payouts. Unfortunately, without a lawyer, diminished value doesn't seem likely unless we're talking serious frame damage. Depending on the type of damages and how much it'll be, I might be contacting a lawyer. Considering the way I like to drive, and the type of car the G35S is, I don't exactly want to trust a reconstructed frame.

 

Don't forget to post pics of the hottie as well.

 

I agree, who cares what the person looked like that caused the damage? It's amazing how persuasive attractive females can be, no wonder there are a disproportionate amount working in pharma sales earning the fat chip. One of these girls rear ends me in my new 335 there will be no rationalizing that it's ok just because she looks and smells good.

Damage to a new vehicle is a shame. It's far more than 1 to 2k imho. In the old days it took a sunny day and a very good eye and touch to uncover hidden damage and repairs (ever see what a repair looks like from the inside out? We all know body shops are backed-up, and there is an incentive to turnover cars. Good body work is an oxymoron in itself). Today, anyone with $10 and internet access can see Carfax and immediately be aware of repairs. My 335 was already on Carfax when it was en route to the exit port in Germany.

Don't know what to say, I think if it were me, I'd repair it, drive it maybe 2-3 years, and get rid of it. Body work is one situation where I'd be willing to eat the depreciation just to be rid of the vehicle. My Maxima has never been hit in 9 yrs., I hope my new car can make it that long too.....

Good luck again, sorry to hear bout this incident.

 

Man, that really sucks Dopey. Sorry to hear about your accident. I can't even begin to imagine how I would feel if someone hit my G after only a couple of weeks of ownership. I really hope that everything works out and that you get your G back looking like brand new. Good luck bro and keep us updated.

 

That sucks. Sorry to hear. My last car got dinged in my office parking lot before I made the first payment and I was beside myself. I'm beyond **** with the G now and I'm still dreading getting dinged, much less rear ended. That being said I agree with dream_G35:
"you have the power to turn this into a positive exciting accident. Good luck on your journeys"

Hey, you never know, maybe she has a soft spot for guys who know how to drive the G.

 

Damn sorry to hear that man... She should reward you with sex

 

"party with me and we can forget about this whole accident thing"

 

That's too bad, but at least you didn't get rear ended and have this
happen https://g35driver.com/forums/lounge-off-topic/129262-life-death.html

 

Show Me Pics!!!!!!

 

She should reward you AND pay through insurance. Wooohoo the fun you could have!!!

 

The hottie or the car?

 

both, but i want to see what a messed up 07 tail looks like

 

I was rear ended the first day i had the car. Drunk driver rear ended me going 35 MPH. Gave me all kinds of fake info, i called the cops and told them he was drunk and away he went.

took 3 weeks to fix the car, but she is back to normal.

 

I got rearended too check out the pic. All is good now though!

 

sssoooo smallll
