Well i wish i listened to my mom and fixed myself something to eat in the kitchen instead of goin out. long story short cause i allready typed all this up and the browser closed on me. About 2 hours ago i hit a deer and im really depressed right now cause the wrecker hauled my car away. I dont know if its totalled or not. but the hole left headlight is gone and the hood crumpled, the airbags did not go off. I was going about 45 mph and didnt hit the breaks till the deer was like 2 feet in front of me. I just need some feedback....

Damn dude sorry to hear that. Your car probably won't be totaled. It shouldn't be unless there was massive structural damage. just take it easy man and don't sweat it.

What happens if they say its totalled

 
Rep Power: 376

I didn't even try to lift up the hood....im sure the bumper has been hit, and part of the frame where the headlight is. Also i saw the radiator smashed in

 
Rep Power: 376

yes i will buy a new one........How does it work again? this is how i understand it, pleace correct me if im wrong. I owe honda $10,669.29, if its totalled the insurance company pays off the car. Then what do i get? The amount of the car? or the rest of the amount of the car for its Total worth? I think its worth $12,675 in kbb. Does that mean I get about 2,000 from the insruance company towards a new car

 
Rep Power: 376

Say the damages cost 7k-9k will they fix it?

 
Rep Power: 376

Well, after talking with some people i dont want the car back it will never be the same...If not totalled I think ill proabably trade it in for a new one.
Well guys any suggestions on some cars...used too? any info would be nice...im goin to sleep now tho

it probably wont be totalled. i railed a deer at about 70 mph with my stratus right beforei got my civic this summer. it was only about $1400 damage, and my insurance covered it because it was a deer, it should be under comprehensive coverage.

 
Rep Power: 320

well i did a 360 n the middle of the road and hit a embankment with my s-10 before i got the civic and they totatled it

 
Rep Power: 296

all depends on your insurance ya know.

 
Rep Power: 320

i would guess so , on a side note its really cold up in maine right now? cause its only 40 here in va

 
Rep Power: 296

yea, when i got out of work the other night, frost was forming on my windshield. ive went from a sweatshirt to light jacket, now i have my winter jacket out. snow soon!

Yeah it really sucked when i wrecked my old 01 EX. The car is more than likely not totalled. Just remember though, if they fix it and you do trade it in for something else the value will not be was KKB is. I traded mine in after I got it back and I only for $10,500 for it. And I owed $8,000. The value of your car is going to go down since it has been wrecked. IMO wait to see what the insurance says. If it is not totalled, get a few different opinions from different body shops. If the car is fixed right, you will not have any problems with it. Then just keep it. I had problems with mine, but thats because it was not fixed right. One example is that when they put the driverside fender back on they pinched the wiring harness for my headlights. And a couple of weeks later my wiring harness burned out. They paid for it to be fixed, but it was just a pain, because the car was back in the shop. If everything turns out good, keep the car. Don't give up hope just yet.

get an 04 wrx. seriously great car holds the road really well!
watch for the 5spd though, never ever launch (5k+ clutch drop)that car unless you like having the pressure plate explode or something like that. i like my auto cause its just a fun overall drive

 
Rep Power: 376

Well it looks like the frame holding the radiator is smashed, but the bumper part of the frame is almost untouched. The bumpercover itself as you can see its really screwed up...

 
Rep Power: 306

dont worry about your car. i'm pretty damn sure that insurance will fix it. when i got into my accident my car looked ALOT worse than yours. you probably got like 6k worth of damage to your car. as long as a good body shop is gonna fix up your car you got nothing to worry about. my car still drives like new.

 
Rep Power: 0

from the pictures it looks like its your bumper, and that took most of time impact. I personally don't think it would be totaled, I had a wreck 10x worse than that and it got fixed, now its as good as new.

 
Rep Power: 376

Ok since im sure its not totalled now. Im going to go to a friends body shop and im gonng get a carbonfiber hood inplace of the oem hood....some black headlights from tornactive, and mabye some aftermarket front bumper I can get cheap...
