  • FML.... :( Snow plow-1 G6-0

    pretty sure my GT is totaled which means now my GXP is gonna have to come out here and now its prob gonna have a ton of miles on it and get all rock chipped up

    so, long story short, it snowed this morning but the roads were clear by this afternoon when i was on my way back from class, other than the snow the wind was blowing, i came up on a semi, which was in the left lane passing a car that was doin prob 40, after he passed them he got back in the right lane, and was doin prob 65, i stayed in the left lane to pass him and i was only going slightly faster, as i could not see very well because of all the snow that was blowing around from the semi.........well next think i know i smash into the backend of a snowplow that is doing prob 45 or less and according to the driver of the semi, the snow plow was in front of him, then got into the left lane and started slowing down to use the turn around in the median.........just my luck.......hitting a plow that is doing nothing but "driving around waiting for more snow to fall" and he wast even plowing or spreading sand..........didnt even hurt the plow at all, as i had tried to put her in the ditch as soon as i saw the plow but it was too late for that, i didnt even have time to hit the brakes, and i went under the truck and hit the back tires of the plow........cop said just recently this same plow driver/truck got hit, and they took off the sand spreader LOL

    it took out the radiator which i saw it steaming imediatly after stopping, and shut the engine off so i think its probably "drivable" with a new rad. and headlights but i dont think ins. is gonna pay for all the metal to be pulled out.........i might have to end up buyin the car back and puttin a new rad and 2 headlights in it just so i have something to drive seing as how i just spent a shitload on headers for my GXP

    anyways heres the pics, from the looks of it i dont think ins. is gonna fix it, so i only hope that if they dont i can at least have my brembos and GTR and amp and sub for my GXP and have my hammerhead and MMIs to sell or something

    OMG im so sorry to hear that happened to you. this season sucks for motorists in more than one way.

    On a slightly lighter note, PM me if you want to sell the hammerhead because i am the same paint code so i would be willing to buy it.

    I feel terrible that this happened :/

      Damn dude that was one hell of a hit.... I can tell u just from me running over a chunk of ice last year it did $1100 + in damage. That was just for the rad, ac condenser, lower grills, and the plastic air dam under the front to get replaced. Just a guess but I'd say
      all my stuff plus bumper and healights, your talking $3k. Sad to hear.

        ya, well its prob gonna be 3k just to replace the gxp bumper grilles and foglights and paint it lol..........if i wouldnt have clipped the fricken tires on the plow i think it would have been fine, the back of the truck cleared my hood LOL...........sooooo close to missing it too, it really only hit about the first foot from the passenger side right in the corner, but it was -5F and the entire front bumper literally shatered, it even broke the fricken welds on the driverside of the bar in front of the radiator and didnt hurt the driverside at all lol...........i sure dont want to have to bring the gxp out here but if they total it im probably gonna have to.......

            That's fkn brutal. I'm sorry to say it's a write off. I just went through a huge ordeal with insurance and having my front end repaired. The estimate on mine was $3500-4000 for minor front end damage. If this were even repairable it would cost $8000. Your whole front end is toast

            Sorry to hear!!! but like people told me just be thankful you're alive...

              idk, it was just fixed this last summer with 11k in damage when some idiot tried hitting me head on passing someone right in front of me

              idk how far it got pushed into the engine bay........i was too depressed to look at it too closely there is zero damage to the driverside tho its all about the first 2 feet of the passengerside...........idk i guess i will prob know by the end of the week..........

                          why would you buy it back? just let insurance give you whatever its worth and buy another one. IMO that thing is totaled so just let em total it and buy a different G6 or something else to DD
