I was rear ended in my GSLSE on tuesday afternoon by a semi and this is all thats left of my car

I have another car that I can put whats left onto so it wont go to waste or a crusher.

DAMN! You allright?

WE3RX7 · 07-30-2008, 09:52 PM

Man! I just sent you a PM regarding your parts car too - that sucks!! Hope you're alright man! Check your "evil" PMs as I wasn't sure if you still surfed here or not...

Rogue_Wulff · 07-30-2008, 10:04 PM

I'd have to say that one a tad bit beyond repair. I hope you are alright.

Kentetsu · 07-31-2008, 04:24 AM

Just needs a little elbow grease..... Sure hope you're alright man. Any insurance payment forthcoming to help ease the pain?

2gslse · 07-31-2008, 02:24 PM

I am alright physically but down because of the car. I haven't talked to the ins co yet I am waiting on the police report still but yes I will be expecting some payment for the car and all accociated bills I accrue from this. The good thing is lately it seems first gens values have been going up

Rearended by a semi, means the value has gone way up. Unless you did something that caused the accident......

WE3RX7 · 07-31-2008, 03:09 PM

Yea - I hope you get everything covered! I'm also very impressed the car still crumbled as designed. I mean, it sucks that the car is totalled, but it still compressed as mazda intended it to during a rear collision! Makes me feel safer about my gsl-se.

How bad is the front - is the engine, trans, rear still good? I'm sure you could swap that into another shell easily...

2gslse · 07-31-2008, 03:30 PM

I wasn't the cause of it at all traffic was heavy and it slowed down apparently the semi driver wasn't paying attention to the road.

I was able to drive the car onto and off of the trailer. The front of the car is fine it never got hit so I will be able to use almost everything again

Damn that sucks man. Im glad you are ok! Maybe next weekend Billy and I can come hang out with you for a little while.

Dibs on the left tail light?

Really though, that sucks.

It's always sad to see a 7 get popped like that.

classicauto · 08-01-2008, 06:59 AM

holy hubs of hannah that thing is demo'd!

At least most of the engine stuff should see another life. Glad you're alright...

orion84gsl · 08-01-2008, 07:43 AM

On behalf of all decent truckers, I'd like to apologise for your car being smashed by one of us. Glad your ok, that could have been very bad.
