Definitley looks like a total loss from the pics you posted. i would be very surprised if they try and repair it... Hopefully you are able to get new one that is as good or better than that one. Orange is probably right about following to close, not that the person in front of you was not an idiot.. they probably were. Again, glad you are ok.

Tough loss. Nobody enjoys seeing their car dismantled all over the road. At least you are ok and everyone here can be reminded about being extra cautious on the roadways. Good luck finding a new beast to drive.

glad you okay

don't let the insurance talk you into any repairs because she will never be the same. not to mention the record and value drop.

I say go S197 now.. J/K Sorry to hear about your car. They may fix it though depepnding on frame. I had 9000$ worth of damage to my S197. Thank goodnes for W.S. Club though. I called Emilio at 7 :00 AM on a Sunday to come get me and help me pull fender off tire so we could limp it to his house. I feel your pain!

Emilio WTF is a hazmat sticker? I thought you couldnt have bottle hooked up at all on freeways? Can someone find some info?

I was always told the bottle had to be unhooked but quite honestly how many times have you been told to pop your trunk?

if you're planning on keeping it and not selling it, price or value drop shouldn't matter. that being said, you should check to see if it's tweaked anywhere on the frame. if not, then it may be as simple as replacing a few body pieces.

but if the frame is tweaked, i'd stay away. you'd be putting your safety at risk, cause the car won't perform as it should in the event of another fender bender.

p.s.

earlier today on a taco bell run, i had a person blasting their horn at me wanting me to turn. reason why i wasn't turning was cause there was a pedestrian walking towards me, blocking my view of oncoming traffic. person behind me was blaring their horn a good minute before i finally decided it was safe to turn. i know if i turned when THEY wanted me to and got t-boned, they woulda booked it out of there and i'd be assed out. some people. *sigh*

Bad news is that the Mach is toast. Good news is that your ok and now you can get a Z06 like your friends red one that you liked so much. They stop REALLY well too.

yeah, they do. but i think abs keeps you from locking them up and sliding... so the car still goes forward even if you slam the brakes. this is a case of following too close for the speed going.

which is the case sometimes. people only account for the amount of space needed to react and sometimes not the space needed for the car to actually stop. sure, they react in time, but the distance between one car and another is just too small and you still hit them. :(
