I'll try to make this short. I was driving monday morning to work, and came up on a curve a little to fast. I tried to slow down because I was going about 70+ coming up to this. Well I ended up doing a 180 slid backwards about a 150 feet on the left shoulder then I rolled it twice down an embankment and slid until I hit a tree. Luckily I was wearing my seat belt, so I got a little whip lash and bumps on my head where the roof collapsed.

i was doing the same in a ti, but i did about 4 360's, smashed the front in about 3 feet, did about 2 moe 360's the other way, and the smashed the drivers side in. this was back in august. all you can do is get what you can from the insurance co. stay on their ass and if there is a loan for the car, make sure that they pay it off. then do what i did. i bought a m3 the next week, lol.

I know this sounds dumb, but I only had liability on the car, because full coverage cost more than the car.

I learned my lesson, but now I have a $5000 pile of metal. Thats why I'm looking for an e30 cheap just to get me around, or a cheap TI since I already have a parts car.

Jeez, looks like the Ti held up pretty well considering. I hope I dont have the same misfortune! Anyways, check ebay - there are usually a few Ti's on there that you can probably get a good deal on. It doesnt look like there are many parts on that car worth saving so you might be better off sellnig it to a junk yard. good luck
