I have the feeling to like...if any type of accident involved, just take insurance money, and FI the FR-S up, or Engine Swap!!!!!!!
Glad you are doing great, and it doesn't look too bad. I feel your pains for a new car, so sorry. |

I know what you mean. I had a galant embedded in my passenger door about two months after I got mine. My fault of course, but it still sucked pretty badly. It was also my first major wreck other then a fender bender over a decade ago. You'll get through it and your car will look as good as new with except with a bit of tarnish on it's soul. |

My friend been in this situation before. Said he had to pay his insurance company a deductible to pay for repairs while the insurance company got the money from the uninsured driver and later on got his deductible back . Though I guess it depends on whether they are willing to pay, though by the sound of it in your case, I assume that uninsured driver won't.

Well there goes the not crying thing..
I absolutely cannot talk to my parents about this or give suggestions about what to do or even question things without getting yelled at. Holy shit I'm more of a wreck than my car.. I guess I'll just hope for the best, I sure as hell hope nothing is wrong with me. |

Very sorry for your mishap, Missy. Damn shame that both you and your beautiful new 10 Series were hurt.
Like others said, go see a doctor right away. It sounds like a pretty severe whiplash since your head went forward first and then snapped back with the rear impact. I'm not a doctor, but have read of others having similar accidents and worse outcomes because they didn't get medical attention soon enough. And check into a diminished value claim. Your car will definitely qualify. Here in Oregon, we pay for mandatory uninsured motorist protection to kick in for situations like this. It usually involves the at-fault driver also being unlicensed and fleeing back to their country of origin. Take care, keep us posted. |

I called my mom, and I expected for her to yell her lungs out into my face, but nah. Her first reaction was. "Are you hurt ? Did you call the police ?" I cried hearing those words. Because I remember 1 minute ago I was crawling out of my car, and wishing for the car to be scratched, but I saw it's side crumbled. That camry was my mom first brand new car ever.. |

Sorry to see this...
As someone who suffered a domino-effect accident like this (albeit at a higher speed) the headache and back pain are just the beginning. I still have neck and back pain 14 years later, and I was extremely fit and pain-free before the accident. Get thoroughly checked out by a doctor, have x-rays of your spine taken, seek physical therapy if necessary. It might also be a good idea to get lawyered up if your insurance fails to take care of you... |

Sorry to hear. If your experiencing from pain or headaches you may have suffered a slight whiplash injury or something a long those lines. Go see a doctor and have your self assessed. If anything comes of it like medicine, or physio costs your capable of adding that to your insurance claim in most cases.

Honestly our health insurance was switched recently and I have no idea what I need to do to get checked out and I don't want to piss off my parents by asking since when I was saying my head hurt this morning my dad said "it's just because you're sick(hardly) your airbag didn't deploy and you only hit the head rest.. Take something" I think he thinks I'm being a bitch about it or something and they're too upset with me to think anything else.

Just go and take it one step at a time so it doesn't seem so overwhelming. Inch by inch life is a cinch, yard by yard life is hard. Also remember that if money can fix it, it's not a problem. Keep things in perspective and you will be fine. Just a bump in the road, so to speak. You will get past this and all will be well again. Good luck. P.S. you're not grounded! |
