My Scepter is F*cked

[Rapeacivic]

Well,

After all the time, money and effort thatI have put inot my car I would have never thought that this would have happened. As I was pulling into my work's parking lot today my gas pedal got stuck and my car slammed into the side of the building after I lost control of it. I had the brake pedal pressed all the way down and I tried used my e-brake(Didn't work for shit, I guess it wasn't tightened all way) My Carbon fiber hood, my RMM front lip, my headlights, are all fucked. The car was about to go into the paint booth next week for a new paint job, I guess that isn't happening anymore, it was also supposed to be in a car show in March, now that isn't happening either. I'm so fucking shaken up right now it isn't even funny.

[Rapeacivic]

Yeah, it happened so fast I didn't have much time to react. My car being an Auotmatic didn't help either

[toyrolla]

Wow Dude, I am so sorry....

The most important thing is that you're Ok.

[CamryPunk]

Wow... yeah sorry to hear that.

99% chance that they'll call it a salvage. It's up to you. My car is a salvage. For a front end damage, they decided to label it as a salvage. Sucks though. Hope everything goes well.

[96CamrySport]

My heart goes out to you.

I'm sorry for your loss.

[Rapeacivic]

Thanks guys for your support. I don't know what I'm going to do. This car was like my own kid. I don't know whats going to happen.

[Hamsterman]

nooooooooo! i am really sorry bro, your car was some serious hot stuff just make the best of what you can and we'll see what happens from there...

[95camguy]

damn... sorry to hear that

[Knailgun]

dude...I am so sorry for your loss. I don't know what I would do if something happend to my camry...it's like my kid too. If I have any parts you need, I'll sacrifice them to you, I have a mess of front OEM parts for a 92-96

Note- One thing we can all do on this board is learn from other people's experiences... If this happens to you, try dropping it into neutral and shutting it down.

^^^Same as Rapeacivic said it happens so quick you can't react. The car I had before my Cam was a 1990 Old's Cutlass Ciera. The accerlator started to stick after I was goofing around and racing a co-worker in his corolla in the parkinglot at work. After that the accelerator would stick from time to time. One time I was going like 30-40 and it wouldn't slow down even pressing down on the brake and I had to make a sharp ass left turn and almost bucked the shit out of the curb. Happened so quick and was scared as hell I just took the turn and tried not to hop the curb when I know it'd make sense to just shift into neutral. After that experience I told my dad I refused to drive that death trap anymore. A week later I was driving a 1995 Camry

damn shame man...i know id be crying like a little girl..

[jhbhatia]

Count your blessing that you came out alright. sh!t happens...just move one and work on your next car..and good luck

[REAPER STRAIN]

My God! I had a daydream about that. What happens if I got in an unavoidable accident? All the mods, research, TLC that I put into my car.... What happens then... I would be lost. I feel bad man. The Scepter is like our brother's kid. We watch it grow up, share in its accomplishment and upgrades and then something tragic happens.

I say cry on the first day, drink till you pass out on the second, and on the 3rd day start planning for the resurrection. You've come too far to go to Carmax and sellout by getting an Accord.

Fix it.

[CrawlingEye]

damn, that sucks.
hopefully they'll pay for repairs on it.

remember, where there's will there's a way (corny but true).

[RichieRichJP]

god damn rapeacivic noooo!! I wanted to see your car too!! Goodluck with this man, everything will be cool
