Default new car project. death of the em2

ok so my 03 might be totalled. this woman slammed on her brakes at the end of an entrance ramp when we had plenty of time to merge. i was looking over my left shoulder, checking to make sure no one was changing into the lane i was merging into and i smashed into her. bummper is destroyed, right headlight destroyed, right fender destroyed, left fender bent, the frame around the headlight is all broken and mangled, and my battery is pushed back against my motor



this is chimera's engine bay because i don't have a pic of mine, but the battery should be where his air filter is. this is just an idea to show you how far back it is.

either way, whether my civic is totalled or not i'm switching to a 6th gen (preferably a hatch). this is mostly for insurance reasons, because i am now on high-risk insurance and insurance on the 03 will be $5k for 6 months since the car isn't paid off. so i'm switching to something i can pay cash for and not have to have full coverage on.

That sucks! I only have liability but I only pay $360 a year. Are you sure you can't get it cheaper through someone else? Anyway,good luck, I really like the 6th gen hatches so i'm sure it'll be sweet.
