Not an LGT, but why I am not looking for one now. My '08 Impreza. Hit by a fully loaded 4-axle dump truck just after the b-pillar. Spun a few times, went airborn, flew through the air according to witnesses (the hit blacked me out). Took out a utility pole with the bottom of the car, a street sign with the top of the hood. Landed on it's side about 50' off the road. No tracks through the snow up to the car, just fell out of the sky lol. Hit was hard enough for me to hit the passenger side door, lost part of my eyebrow, broke three ribs, a lot of weird bruises. Lucky to be here. Thank you Subaru.

Like many of you I read this occasionally and think how sad these all are.

 

Well then I decided to join the thread today with my LGT.

 

Was 10 seconds from my parking spot at work when my Subaru decided she didn't want to turn. It just so happens at that corner we have our trash dumpster and the enclosure right there.

 

Dumpster enclosure +1

Legacy -1

Everyone at work thinks I did it on purpose cause I needed a new bumper and passenger headlight.

 

Owned her a little over a month.

Now I get to track down a reputable shop here in Colorado Springs.

 

Thinking it will be about $3000 if I am lucky......

Next time give it some gas. That's how AWD works. ;)

 

Oh my mind reeled. Thought about gassing it and pulling to the right. Would have swung around and went tail first. I've avoided many things in my life with Subies but this one was just a B-Line for her. Almost like she wanted to, lol.

 

Oh well, goes to the shop in an hour so I can get the estimate and they can order all of the crapy aftermarket parts they can find....

And then after the guy in the truck tried killing me. Completely bent the frame and ripped strut tower. Was wearing seat belt but still hit windshield. Under old pick up truck at around 70mph his fault. All I walked away with was glass in my left arm and light burn in my right. Lucky hat saved me from glass in the head lol

This was back in May coming home really late/early 5am came over a right hand turn ridge an all of sudden back fish tailed out and it was like I was on ice. Plowed right through the guardrail and bounced off the bridge with my passenger door into the Lake. I was able to quickly remove myself from the car before it was completely filled with water.

Ouch. Is there enough damage that they'll want to total it?

"Bullet-proof" your OEM TMIC! <<Buy your kit here>>

I wish your buddy good luck with dealing with damaged mods and insurance companies. It ain't pretty.

 

I depends on the company and your agent. Mine has always been spot-on when working with my vehicles and mods. Big thing is having receipts and invoices ready to go.
