That's not true. My 2010 was badly damaged, the body shop did a wonderful repair job, and I got 100% Kelly Blue Book when I traded it for a 2012.

Figured Id give you guys one last up date. No airbags actually went off. I didnt bother to ask if there was actually structural damage to the car or not. The other guys insurance(state farm) actually took care of me. After all was said and done I was able to afford something less practical and less fuel efficient ha ha. Granted I do miss the fit a lot more then i thought I would.

Congrats! I'm glad to hear this as I also have State Farm coverage. Heaven forbid something ever arise. I would be devastated though if I ever lost my Fit.

How so? Seriously. how? i can see frame damage for sure, meaning it cant be honda certified. So howd you get full value? Cause they wanted to stick it to me hard! im still stuck in a fit i owe 17k for thats only worth 9k now. freakin sucks!

sorry but just seen your post! lol lsx smell sx, blah blah, Rotary motors are actually very dependable motors and actually very bad ass, they have bad raps cause 98% of humans just dont understand them, if you build and maintain a rotary right its a very dependable, and awesome motor. Not bashing, everyones entitled to theyre opinion, i just hate to see an rx7 converted to anything but a rotary. its just sacreligious!
