advice, A Deer Killed My Honda, car totaled , first post
Hello HAF, first post, thanks in advance
formerly a 2001 V6 Accord LX 185,000 miles I hit a deer on the highway going highway speed. Damage comes out to $2800; parts+paint+labor. The insurance company wants to take the car and give me $2K. What Would Tyler Durden Do? found all the parts on carparts.com comes out to 550 and then I would need to paint them and put them on. Shop said 800 for paint I'm leaning toward taking the money and looking for another car. Thoughts? THANK YOU! |
This is hard to call.
It really depends on where you are in life,if you know what I mean. At one point in my life I would have kept the car, taken the money. Then do as much or the repair I could and only paid someone for the things I couldn't do. At another point in life, I'd take the money, let them have the car and look for a bit of a newer one...say a 7th gen Accord (03-07) :shrug: Just my two cents........Thanks for joining and good luck in whatever you decide to do. |

Welcome to the forums:)
I would go along with what Poorman is telling you.. WheelBrokerAng :) |
Welcome to the forum. As noted, tough call, but in general I would look at it as "time to go new (or newer) Honda shopping"!

Welcome to the forum, Biomecaman
I agree with Leftoverture.... take the $2K and use it as a down-payment on a new Accord |
Welcome to the forum, sorry about it not being a more happy occasion.
I echo the guys above, take the money; maybe buy another 2001 and keep the car for parts? |
