BRZ Rear Ended Damage... Totaled? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Zeuseidon · 12-18-2016, 09:19 AM

Hey guys, I was involved in a rear end accident Thursday.

I was stopped at a street light and a Jeep Patriot didn't even slow down. Hit me so hard it pushed my car about 4+ feet into a CRV in front of me.

Haven't heard from an adjuster yet. You guys think I'll be saying goodbye?

Almost guaranteed its totaled. Sorry for your loss.

Yea, I've been getting 50/50 from everyone I've talked too.

The only "saving grace" is that airbags didn't deploy.

How messed up are the rear quarter panels? The rest of the stuff (hood/bumpers/front fenders/trunk) is relatively simple to replace. If the rear quarters are damaged, I'd imagine that they have to cut the damage out and weld in new metal.

The right rear is pushed in probably an inch, but its not terrible.

This ended up being just a hair under $6k

hopefully the guy that hit you is properly insured and has enough coverage to pay for your car and the one in front of you. I was once rear ended in traffic and pushed into the car in front of me as well. the kicker on that was that the guy that hit me was underinsured and his policy did not have enough to fully cover me and the car in front of me. it was a pain in the ass to deal with, but I eventually got it sorted out.

I was warned about this.... worst case scenario I have coverage for "underinsured" so I can make a claim with my own insurance to cover the difference.
