			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......

			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... Last edited by WE3RX7; 07-31-2008 at 05:11 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 |

			Dibs on the left tail light?  Really though, that sucks.  It's always sad to see a 7 get popped like that.
