OMFG I'm about to punch something..!?
I'm driving.... about 45 minutes ago... to take pictures of what my new rims look like on my car. Some 16 year old bitch decides to pull out in front of me. I think about swerving... but her whole car takes up the road... nothing I could do. I can't even express to you what I'm feeling right now... I feel like beating the shit out of someone/something and screaming at the same time.
I knew instantly what had happened, I put my e-brake on... however my reaction was interesting. I got out and started screaming MY FUCKING CAR WHAT DID YOU FUCKING DO!?!? before making sure she was ok... and she kind of lost it and started crying. It clicked then and I made sure she was ok and told her was just a material object and at least we were all ok. But inside I wanted to take my tire iron to her for taking away my favorite thing in the fucking world. FUCK!

Isn't it generally a safe assumption that an insurance company will total a vehicle simply because of air bag deployment?

Not always. If the reapir cost get close to or exceed 75% of the vehicle's value, they will total it.
Most of the time the vehicle gets repaired.
Have your car go through a flood where water reaches center console or dash level will get you totalled 99% of the time.
It does suck about the accident though. But the car definately looks repairable.

Its not as bad as I thought when you first told me, definitely sucks though! Your suspension looks to be unharmed which is a good thing, I bet it can be fixed.

For what its worth the rims look good.
What year is it? Both bags deployed, probably a new core support, hood fenders, bumper(support, and cover), and paint it will probably be totaled.
Sucks man, let us know how it turns out. Atleast you are both ok.

Re: OMFG I'm about to punch something..!?
It's a 98 GSX. I'm looking here and I hope it's not totalled. I fucking owe 8500 dollars on the loan still. And it looks like the suggested private party price on the mileage (76,000 miles) in "Good" condition is 7,135. And I'm assuming they're probably gonna do trade in value which is less, but can't remember. Man this day keeps getting worse and worse.

Re: OMFG I'm about to punch something..!?
That's why I got Gap Insurance on my car I had payments on. Do you have gap insurance? It's for exactly that, in case you're car gets totalled, and the amount of money they give you doesn't cover what you still owe, then they will pay it for you. That sucks to hear though, good luck with it all!

Re: OMFG I'm about to punch something..!?
That sucks man. When My car got totalled they gave me a pretty good deal. Hopefully it works out for you. You told me some of your plans and It sounded like it would have been a sweet car. Sorry man!!! BUT if they do total it then you should let me know  .

I just realized those aren't the stock wheels! They look very similar in design

Re: OMFG I'm about to punch something..!?
That sucks! I would buy the car back from the insurance company and fix it. You will make quite a bit of money from the looks of it. The damage doesn't look too terrible.

Re: OMFG I'm about to punch something..!?
shit.
I remember seeing your car in person at Wendy's. Fucking tight car meets dumbass.
I'm sorry to hear this man. Exact thing happened to my last car. I know exactly the feeling. Least the girl broke down crying. Mine started smiling telling me how much of an adrenaline rush it was.
I'm pretty damn sure that iron would feel good. I know mine would have.

Re: OMFG I'm about to punch something..!?
Ohhh man! That sucks so bad! Reminds me of when I totalled mine. A little different scenario but eh. You got lucky though. Mine accident caused frame damage. I paid $7k for the car, drove it for like 5 months, totalled it, and only ended up getting $1450 back, including what the junk yard gave me. Wasn't even fixable so buying it back would have been a lost cause. The rims do look nice though. Women drivers
