Car insurance is based on car crashes which is greatly affected by the car you drive as speed is the leading cause of vehicle accidents. So with this being said grillpt, the reason your car insurance is higher is because you bought an Evo :P

I concur with this. I have yet to see my insurance rates go up after untold number of Evos being totalled. Mine has never waivered and if anything goes down.

To the untrained eye, his car may not look totaled. However, Evos aren't cheap to fix. The damages definitely exceed the fair market value of the car. In a word, totaled.

Don't feel TOO bad. My car was parked and was hit by a drunk driver. Just adding parts together it came out to almost 21,000 NOT including Labor.

i haven't read all four pages but whoever is saying thats not totalled is crazy. that car would be at LEAST $30,000 parts and labor and bodywork just to get back to newish. i mean, the roof is buckled. that means serious body work and straigtening. i would cut my losses if i were you and just invest in another vehicle.

Doubt that. My car was in WAY worse shape.

and my insurance is still $110 a month for all you worried about insurance rates. i think they just rape the noobs and teens. LOL.

you're kidding me right? if you lift the car on a rack and look under the car, i bet you the subframe and the unibody have sustained heavy damage. not to mention all the mounts, exhaust system, suspension and other various items that would have to be replaced just under the car. now you look at the body and you have quarter panels, front and rear fascias, fenders, skirts, and paint. and then, THE ROOF IS BUCKLED! we can only see the pictures and i bet it looks alot worse in person. and theres a hole in the friggin tranny. (nice clutch by the way). and hopefully he didn't hit the oil cooler, intercooler , rack and pinion, or anything else under the car. and i did'nt include labor. and i hope it's an EVO lancer you're riding cause of course a regular lancer would be cheaper to fix.

Hope you are OK. Is that a hole in the bell housing?

Definitely did manage to screw it up all around, I would guess it might look nice in the future but I don't think it will handle the same if you decide to fix it. Best of luck!

heavens turbo--- i agree with u completely. theres a lot of damage under the car.just to name a few, all suspension, tranny, t-case needs to be replaced and the crossmember is twisted not to mention the lower control arm on the left.

fostytou--- no m not looking to fix the car. the insurance guys are picking it up tommorow.
