i hope not. klze one day?
|
No KL-ZE most likely.. that would take the economy out of my economy car :)
I think that makes it pretty clear what engine I really want to put in there. |
I just called the body shop and they gave me a heart attack. I called to have them fax me the form I gotta sign to authorize them to work on the car (I had to look up my e-fax number I didn't remember) and he asked me what car I was calling about. I said "the silver mazda", to which he responded "oh the one with the fancy wheels? it's totalled".
turns out there is another silver mazda now where with fancy wheels. jesus that scared the crap out of me. The guy who answered is from the service side of the place not the body shop so he had it mixed up. omjesus my heart is still racing though |
Hahaha, I bet he did it on purpose :p
I know I'd mess with people if I worked at a body shop, haha! Sounds like the P5 is on the road to recovery, good stuff :) |

I'm still hoping they won't but I wanted to scour the interwebs to see what my options were. I don't have a job so I can't finance anything.. the only way I'd be able to even get back into a totally stock high mileage but nice condition protege5 would be to sue the jackass who caused all this. |
you need to. I don't see why you wouldn't have a case. And did the driver that caused all this not have insurance?

it's lame I'll only pursue anything if the car is totalled. If it can be fixed, I'm happy because I get by baby back. |
If it were me, he'd get a knock on his door.

Estimate was over $1500 less somehow?? I'm sure it's something where the body shop will find a lot more damage and have to get a supplemental check (they always do) but I don't care as long as the car gets fixed. I really don't even care how long it takes, that's less time I have to worry about my car driving in salt paradise. Funny thing is both estimates said 5 days of repair but the shop said it would take at least 2, probably 3. All I know is no parts have even been ordered, they were given strict orders to get in touch with me to confirm part numbers and such before that happens. I'm still hoping for the best.. if my insurance co revises their estimate (they had to go back after the shop pried the hatch open.. which I'm assuming already happened) and thinks my car is totalled, I'll just tell them to screw off and deal with the other dude's insurance co since he'll be paying for ALL of it in the end. |
Must be very frustrating. Hope your feeling better soon as well.

My back pain got a little better yesterday but today it hasn't improved again. I'm pretty sure after 7 days the soreness and numbness in my right leg should be gone.. but what do I know.. the people at the hospital didn't seem concerned at all, though I'm sure that visit cost $1000
