That is the only thing that really matters. How fast were you going? The only reason I ask is because that does not look like a normal accident to me. Having one tire go usually does not cause a car to end up in a ditch like that. By the way, where is that? Looks like a little highway in a bunch of farm land. -aren   Back to top   Posted: Thu Jan 21, 2010 12:04 pm Porsche_911 Reputation **** Joined: 06 Oct 2008 Posts: 661 Location: Riverside, CA 615.19 Points Check out  My Gallery My Vehicle: Wow.

The main thing is that you weren't injured. The car can be fixed or replaced.

In terms of expense over the price of the car.... Time for wide body bro!   Back to top   Posted: Fri Jan 22, 2010 4:44 pm aren040 Moderator Joined: 02 Mar 2007 Posts: 4954 Location: Southern California 5450.60 Points Check out  My Gallery My Vehicle: Steve, is it an initial estimate or did the shop do the tear down? I have a feeling it will go much higher once they do the tear down and find more stuff under there. -aren   Back to top   Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         Car & Lifestyle Forum Index -> Porsche Boxster and Cayman forum : type 986 & 987 All times are GMT - 5 Hours Goto page 1, 2  Next Page 1 of 2 WWW   PCARS chat    Search Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2007 phpBB Group & phpBB SEO All trademarks and logos on this site are property of their respective owners.
