I rolled my RX-8

I rolled my 8 last night landing upside down sliding down the road. No passengers, I pulled myself out of the back window...a bit lucky I think.

The car insurance company is going to offer it back to me, for a price, to part out.

Has anybody done this before? PLEASE pm me.

Is keeping and parting worth it? $$$

It was an 04 with every option, 38,000m. Inside is great, leather, navy, cd changer, new tires...

Looking for some advice and kinda feeling it out to see what people are interested in if I end up buying it back.

I will be posting pictures (and story) in the midwest st. louis forum if your interested.



What should I get next? Too bad it wont be an 8...

I'm really glad you are okay, and you should realize just how lucky you were. I lost a good friend last night in a car accident.

I live in St. Louis

I think I might be getting a ....sigh.... ....something that I can afford now that I trashed my baby. I can't get another 8...I think an srt4. I miss the turbo sound of my old tsi.

Let the bashing begin.

It seems that there is enough interest in parts so I may be keeping it, IF it is afford at reasonable price.

Check midwest forum section for pics.

I would take the check and walk away. Rarely are you going to make a profit parting out a wrecked car after you factor in all the BS of dealing with people, packaging and shipping parts.
