Totaled my TEG!! What's next?
 
So, 2 wks ago (Jun 11, 2008) I was rear ended by this O0 bitch. Her excuse was "I'm sorry. I've had a long day. My feet hurt, I was tryin to take me heels off and hit the gas". Anyway. I spoke w/ their insurance adjuster. They decided to total my 97 LS teg (AKA Non-Boosted Beast). Local body shop said damage was $900. Insurance company said damage was $2618. WTF?? Well, according to KBB, my car is valued @ $2650. According to dickface USAA, it's valued @ $21xx.xx. I can keep the car and still get $1644.xx. I told homeboy I had like $2k in upgrades n ----, faxed him receipts. He "re-adjusts". Value- $2951.xx, keep the car, get $1797.xx. WTF?? He told me that my in dash TV and upgraded audio system didn't change the value of the car. So, I told him to eat my shorts, pay me $2951, total it, and I would remove my TV n ----. so.. that's the deal. Thing is.. I paid $1700 for the teg last july. That's all the $$ I got in it. My orange chicken TB is comin off, so I'm @ no loss. My ultimate question is.. WHAT SHOULD I BUY w/ MY $3k??

I have an auto DA I'm gonna make my DD. I want a new toy. I've had 2 CRXs, 2 Civic HBs, 3 Tegs.. I'm leanin to an accord? Gimme some advice! :6

Who says the car has to have an engine in it when they take it? If it does, at least pull the dizzy/wires, just go wild.

I'll be 20 tomorrow. Time for me to begin thinking of a family, and settling down. I've been thinking of a 4dr EG w/ H22
