wow that really sucks,my jetta looked just like that when a honda accord hit me. the prices for the new lancers are going to be 14k-21k which isnt that bad, not sure on the prices of the RA and evo.

you guys think the ralliart got it bad... shoulda seen the 300 that hit me. let me tell you, the ralliart is a CHAMP! blew the front wheels from the 300 clear across the street. thats what i was told, i dont remember any of the accident... thank god.
the driver of the 300 got a dash and firewall in his lap, bet that wasnt too great of a feeling, especially with a broken leg. either way, that car isnt built very good, and the ralliart saved me from and head trauma, my body can head, my brain cant...

I never thought I'd end up posting my ride in this section of the site. My car slipped on black ice on a curve. I tried to regain control but the rear swung around and I ended up hitting the guardrail. I'm ok and wasn't hurt at all. The airbag never even went off. Result=broken headlights, smashed up hood and bumper. The insurance company said it's a total loss due to heavy damage to the front frame. So I won't be rolling in a Lancer anymore. I'm looking towards getting something along the lines of an Echo or Yaris hatchback, or also the Honda Fit. It's time I give less money to the petroleum companies and put more of it where I need it. I guess this is the end for me in the Lancer world. This website has helped me so much and made me realize that so many Lancer enthusiasts are out there. If anybody ever tells me crap about how Lancers aren't good cars and that Mitsubishi will go bankrupt then I'll be sure to set them straight with the facts. I might browse back here once and a while but until then you guys drive safe and take it easy. Mind you guys I'm writing this 1 week after the accident. This is why I'm not as down as I was on that night.

well as u can imagine i never wanted a story to post here, but here i am only 4 months after getting my baby, its at a garage. Pretty much i was driving and a deer ran right into the side of my car, i didnt even c it until i heard the thud, then it flew past my windshield. Needless to say the car barely runs atm, the throttle position sensor broke so anyway....
