Re: My SVX got hit! ARGH!
That sucks Mike. At least you caught him before he just ended up driving off. And at least the damage wasnt worse than it is... I too thought it was going to be your Claret.

Re: My SVX got hit! ARGH!
Thanks everyone.
I got an estimate from a local body shop for $2890~ to paint and replace the rear quarter and bumper cover. I have already formally filed a claim with the other party's insurance company. I will get at least two more body shop estimates and I will be contacted by one of their adjusters on Monday. I have a feeling that they will total the car, but I intend to fix it and make the best of the situation, and fix the few rust spots the car has as well.

Re: My SVX got hit! ARGH!
Also, thank you everyone for your concerns about the Claret.
The engine and trans are currently removed and Eric and I stayed up all night cleaning out the engine bay and cross member.

Re: My SVX got hit! ARGH!
Mike-
I see rust repair in your future! This will likely be a good thing for you. It isn't as if the car was all original. The car was "almost-totaled" already about 6 years ago. The quarter panels are no longer available from subaru, but I think I know where one is locally (though I can't remember which side it is) and I could bring it to reading for you. Mike

Re: My SVX got hit! ARGH!
When I worked in a Subaru dealer parts department back in 2003, I ordered the last one for a member here on the network.

Re: My SVX got hit! ARGH!
Mike-
I, too, was worried it was the Claret. Wheew! The joke is: you walk up to your car to see the side raked form end to end... but then you see a note on the windshield. Thank god. You unfold the paper and it says "These people that saw me hit your car think I'm leaving my name and address". Christian

Re: My SVX got hit! ARGH!
Good one Christian.
As for the status update, I am still waiting on a finished copy of the police report. The insurance company did call me already and stated that they require a copy before the adjuster can come to do the asessment.
