I messed up guys and I am sad to say that I have screwed up one of these rare machines. Evo 9 MR 55k miles



FML

 

WTF man!! What did you do? Are you OK? Can I buy our wheels?

 

Buy it back and keep the motor for another one

 

Where in Florida and who's the insurance carrier?

 

I put off buying a new set of tires and this is what I get for being complacent. Im 100% fine though

 

Orlando, Geico

 

Walk us through what happened?

Which direction were you heading? It looks a little wet? Did you floor it and spin the wheels and loos control?

If you were heading in the same direction of the Kia (away from your point of view in the picture) you spun more than 180 degrees before hitting that tree so you had some speed or at least spinning all four wheels. If you were heading toward the point of view in the picture it looks like you jumped the curb and then over corrected and swung into the tree.



My guess is you were heading in the direction of the traffic and somehow lost control, spun around and was stopped by the tree. Scary stuff.

 

Who gives a **** about the car. Glad you're safe bro

 

Yea i was heading in the direction on the opppsite side of the kia. I was trying to avoid some pot holes in the road and I guess i moved to suddenly. It had just started raining, which I heard is worse than after its been raining a while. I tried to correct it and slammed into the tree.

 

Thanks man. Im glad Im ok too and that no one else was hurt but I still feel like crap about the car.

 

Are you going to part it out?

 

How fast were you going? damage looks really significant for standard surface street speeds..

 

I honestly dont remember but if I was over the speed limit, it wasnt much

 

Why can't we care about both? lol we are car guys (and gals) so....caring about cars is kinda what we do lol

 

Talked to my insurance company today, they told me the car will be valued as dealer condition other than the tires. Anybody have experience dealing with a total loss evo?
