Hey guys. I've been a lurker here, and necessity has caused me to join. I was in a collision on 1/20/2012, and my car (in my non professional opinion) is totaled.
For legal issues, I do not want to go into what happened. The details are not really important.
I drive (drove) a 1987 Supra. It was a gift to me, and my baby. She was in pristine condition. On 1/10/2012, I was in an accident with another vehicle with minor damage to both vehicles. Estimated damage to my car was $738.65. On 1/20/2012, I was involved in a far more severe collision, with severe damage to my vehicle. The front bumper, both fenders above the front wheels, the passenger door, and the fender above the rear passenger wheel are all severely damaged. The cost to repair (from my uneducated guesses) will far surpass the KBB of my car (it is only worth approximately $3,500 on a good day).
My car was literally pristine before all of this. I am devastated-and I know I shouldn't be. But I am. This was my first car, it was unique, flawless, and special to me.
The CHP officer on scene seemed under the impression that it was my fault. I am working to disprove this claim- he seemed to be assuming that I was driving my car as if I was on the track and lost control.
I have been scouring the internet for a review of this generation Supra so that I can have "official," 0-60 times and 1/4 mile times, among other specs. As we all know, our Supras stock are not *that* fast without modification, but I want official backing to prove my claim. My car is a 1987, non turbo model.
