Crashed the Spyder today....

Luckily I am ok, but my poor baby is not...

The Spyder went underneath a Prius and their rear tire actually came all the way up onto the windshield. Thankfully I am ok.

Anyone have any idea how much this will be to fix or whether they will consider it totaled? It has 7k miles on it so I don't know the approximate amount in repairs. Guessing the value of the car is $55-$60k currently with the mileage.

Awwww that sucks. Glad you are okay at least.

I'm no expert, but I'd say if the chassis is okay, the car should be repairable with out being totaled out. Best of luck to you!

BTW, just another reason the Prius is a bad idea.

Ughh..this sucks. I feel for you, but to be frank I don't see how your frame isn't bent after that one. I would have to say totaled :/

Wow, that really sucks! Glad to hear you and your Subway beverage survived the accident unscathed.
