got some replacement rims and tyres to swap out my Monzas, grabbed mats and everything else is a bust. Boot lip spoiler creased, sports grille cracked.
I will likely go for a modulo front bumper / sports grille to sharpen up the front end - not a big fan of the face lifted front end on the MY12-13.
cheers

I wonder how much that guy needs to pay off?!
Around what speeds did this incident happen at? 100?
Would be nice to see the damages to the frame; the subframe and the boot area. Just curious, isn't it possible to get it repaired? front - New subframes, grille, bonnet, bumper, back - bumper, boot...?
Poor CU2!

I estimated I got hit at 30-40 kph - I was stationary having just come to a stop. The quote was for around $28-29k, however the assessor was not completely happy that the economics justified the work. Sad, but in a way happy that I get a clean straight CU2 from the factory again. Trouble is 6 spd Luxos in white are not that common . . .

would it be possible to buy the car back cheaply, and wreck it?
or is it not worth it?

Wow, I thought the CU2s were nice and sturdy, by the close look of it (Since they're so much wider and bulkier than the previous gen Euro!) (Serviced a few)
Would take A-LOT of yanking and hammering of the frames to repair for the panel beaters, if it was being repaired!

surprised its a write off, the damage looks repairable
how much was the car insured for? airbags go off?
-
generally they replace new for old with ultra new cars
and that damage looks quite significant
i'd rather have a straight one out of the factory TBH

Crumple Zones - they work.

Yeah, getting a new one is def the better option. Although if you could buy it back for cheap on top of that, it wouldn't hurt either. I mean especially if you were going to give it an aftermarket bumpers, lights and grill.

Sorry to hear that Jones. I'll stop whinging about my fried altenator after seeing that. As for the douche bag that could have killed someone, we have to share this place with em unfortunately ....
