Sorry to hear man, I really liked what you were doing to the fit!
Hope the replacement is just as good, if not better.

I'm glad she was honest at least.
One of my coworkers did the same when a woman pulled into his lane without looking. He went off the road and ended up rolling his car. The woman didn't admit anything and my coworker ended up with citations.

Don't worry, her insurance company will do their best to try and lay some blame on you. I t-boned a chick that turned left in front of me while I was pretty much in the intersection and her insurance company is trying to lay 20% of the blame on me. Hopefully my insurance company can at least get me my deductible back.

That is not a cool story, bro.

McFarland road in Alpharetta. Cops were surprisingly very cool and we bullshat (?) about cars while waiting for the tow truck to physically lift my car out of the spot it rested in because it sank in the ground.
I saw a 2013 Mustang this morning, what a busy looking rear end that would best be hidden by a dark color.

First off, glad you're OK. Sucks you had to trash your Fit.
But with no contact with her vehicle... I'm really curious to hear what her insurer is going to say to you. Even if she was charged with the accident.
All will be answered tomorrow, and I know you'll keep us informed, but don't be surprised if you're in for quite the cluster-fun trying to get this covered by her insurance. I hope I'm wrong, but I definitely see a lawyer in your future regardless...![]()

That sucks man, sorry to hear.
At least she wasn't huffing air duster.![]()

I'm glad both you and she are alright, and that she was honest about her mistake. Heartbreaking to see that Fit on the flatbed. I've been following your build thread and really love that car. I hope everything gets resolved smoothly and quickly.

Sucks man, Glad to hear that you are okay though. Since the car is so new are you 100% that they will totla it ?
Either way good luck with the insurance isht
#56
Damn, last thread I look at here last night was a post about your led tails. Sucks that so much went into it and in a short time all the work went to waste. Glad it wasn't any worse though.
#57
If they total it, is there any chance of you pulling parts to either apply to another Fit, or sell?
#58
#59
Damn, that really sucks. But, at least you haave the police saying it's her fault, you weren't hurt, and you didnt kill anybody. Hope the insurance situation is resolved and settled quickly. I know, we'll see another great build. Looking forward to its replacement. Make lemonade out of lemons!!!
#60
I'm glad you could walk away from that. Gotta love decent crash standards and air bags. I walked away from a similar accident a couple weeks back when a dump truck ran a red light.

Sucks to hear. Is the car totaled? Maybe perfect time for K20 swap?
#63
Glad nobody was hurt.
And the car may be totaled.
You going to buy another white Fit?

Sorry about your car, but I'll +1 what everyone here has been saying: without contact with her vehicle, I would be VERY surprised if her insurance company pays up without giving you a major runaround. Plan accordingly.
