Another wing survives...

So yesterday morning I walked away from this without so much as a scratch. I think I got lucky.



Opposing truck was turning left as I was hitting the intersection. The light hit red as we both entered, I fared much worse than he did as I was able to turn enough to direct the brunt of the impact to my front passenger side and hit his rear quarter panel. Other dude was in an 04 F150.

So, the dealership has a used black '11 with 4300 miles on it. Mods include (all Cobb) Intake, intercooler pipes, BOV kit and turboback. Also put in it was an aftermarket alarm, alpine dvd/nav deck, component speakers, subs and amps. I found an AP as well and checked out the tune...running the stage 1 right now. I drove it and the clutch felt like it wasn't abused very much.

What would you guys pay for that?

No SSS, just a barebones GSR.

Holy crap! Glad no one was hurt.

Those rims look like they survived. You should try to part the car out to make something back towards your newer car.

Sorry to hear man (and see). Glad your ok though. That is what matters the most. I love how when tragedies like this happen, our first thought is to go out and get another Evo. There doesnt seem to be much shopping around for a different car. Just shopping around for another Evo. Its gonna suck when they stop making this car and then it will be a little more difficult (and expensive?) to find another one.

And another note, $37k for a used 2011 GSR stripped? WTF? Since when did these cars gain value? You can still get a new 2011 stripped GSR for what? Around $33k after rebates? Probably even lower. Since when do dealerships charge you extra for mods? You know they gave whoever traded that car in even less money because it was "modded". F'ing stealerships

This is why it's good that the X weighs a few hundred pounds more than the VIII. The additional bracing and airbags really do help. Glad you're ok man.
