Well fellow camry lovers/owners on wed afternoon on my way to pick up a friend at his apt, driving thru the parking lot at 15 mph give or take since my buddy was walkin up to the car, this 98 saturn pulls straight out of a parking spot to the right not looking and slams my drivers front! hit me soo hard it threw me over 4ft! everything was ok, im fine and so was he, but he got out and said man im sooo sorry, i didnt even look! so its his fault period and he has progressive ins. they came right out and looked at the car, got me a rental on the spot and towed the car to church brothers collision repair.
At least the guy was nice about it. Most people are dicks that HIT YOU... good luck.

talk about progressive insurance, the piss the SHIT out of me. Was in an accident and she was with progrssive.
F*** those guys.
Somebody rear ended me and they are giving me some BS about waiting for the lady to send the car rental agreement to them eventhough the progressive agent came and view my car, did a report and she admitted that she (the driver of the other car) was at fault. No news from them after 3 days and many voice mails left.
Man another damaged camry. This morning when i took my mom to work i saw a gen 3 camry just like mine exept that it is an i4 totaled that live one block from here, the car is in front of their house, it was hit from the front right and the back got hit badly too it really looks like a wreck. sad to see that camry every time i pass there and also your camry.
i think its one of those saturns that are claimed to be dent resistant. and as for the camry, glad you're okay man. a car is only sheetmetal, it's the people inside that count. damage for you is slight. definetely not a salvage title. good luck on fixing it!

thanks everyone for all the nice comments! i am very shocked how it has turned out w/the insurance for one! and the guy that hit me especially, he seriously seemed to feel really bad about it. not to mention to not have an attitude and totally admitted fault!
as far as the car goes.. since its a 95 2 dr w/140k on it you guys think it wont be totalled? i mean he also hit the front wheel so i could have some suspension damage?? damn to think i just got the ins and plates for it last friday the 12th! i spent 2 hrs at the LB to get it! only had the damned car a month and this shit happens.
also, forgot to add progressives visual quote of $1200! hahaha cant imagine what it will be once its torn apart. i would guess it easily dbls that.
ill keep everyone posted on what happens and again thanks for all the comments!
forgot to mention damn that saturn is like a tank... just some scratches on his but smashed mine to hell
Well the car will be fixed by sept 2nd or next friday!! i was right about the price doubling... started at 1200 and now is up to 2496! cant wait to see how they match that 11yr old rally red paint! im also gettin and alignment that i needed anyhow yeah!

I am still have a jack ass problem with claiming from the other party's insurance company although they admitted fault.
