so now all i gotta do it call him back and tell him yes i want it and ill have the check within a few days and i would have the car back home by tomorrow.

Try to get an estimate first before you do that. If that frame is bent then the last thing you want is to be driving a crooked car. Frame time is $$$$

Hey yall. i got some news. ive decided to just not try and fix it and just let it go. it was fun while it lasted. i had some good and bad times with it. but im just gonna take the money they offered me and find me something else. like maybe a 1gn or 2gn or srt4 at a good price. idc about how much insurance will be on it, ill just find a way to pay it somehow. but yeah thats it. im letting go of it and finding a new Neon. oo and they offered to give me $6800 total or it. wich is way more than i expected. so ill keep everyone posted on what i find and what i end up buying.

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Wed Dec 16, 2009 9:31 pm

Shit I should total mine now...

Neon4Life · Post by **Neon4Life** » Wed Dec 16, 2009 9:33 pm

I sold this for $7,800 back in '06 so I'd say you did pretty well. Get another 2GN immediately!

Sorry to hear that man...but 6800 towards a new to you one is darn good. I hope you find something that you enjoy as much...again always sad to see another neon leave the world.

Neon4Life · Post by **Neon4Life** » Thu Dec 17, 2009 9:26 pm

yeah i guess i fufilled my

"I'm Going to Drive My Neon till it Dies" Club #000048

maybe ill still retain that number if i get another neon soon. lol

NeonOn19s · Post by **NeonOn19s** » Thu Dec 17, 2009 9:54 pm

that is a great deal you got for your car.. sad to see it gone, but take your time to find another one.

FAC3L3SS · Post by **FAC3L3SS** » Thu Dec 17, 2009 9:56 pm

CL dude. I've found 2 or 3 within the last week, 01/02, up here. Search the South Bend area, we've got plenty. With enough cash to mod a bit afterward.

i got 6850 for my 2gn when it got totaled
was a 2005 78k miles

Neon4Life · Post by **Neon4Life** » Fri Dec 18, 2009 4:42 am

nice.

but see i think they are paying me for the stuff i had on there. cause mine blue booked at $4500 soo $6800 would mean they added the aftermarket parts on there.

Midnight_Rider · Post by **Midnight_Rider** » Fri Dec 18, 2009 5:18 am

That is amazing. Progressive said that the Ziebart rustproofing and Diamond Gloss paint treatment didn't "add to the cash value" of my '02 SXT when it got totalled (the car was stock otherwise) so I really got reamed in the settlement amount. You have good insurance!
