I like how the trunk is pushed up. Gives it some nice curves, perhaps you can fabricate a spoiler styled to those angles?

Just kidding. Someone's gotta be the comic relief, yeah? I agree with Brian; hopefully they total the car, because repairing it is going to be more stressful than shitting bricks.


On a side note: if someone in a Jeep hit your car, that kind of damage isn't so bad. How fast was she going? Audis are built tremendously tough; I had a girl rear-end me about a month ago, and all I got were some scratches that you can hardly see, and her hood was bent up, with her internals hardly working.

speaking of wrecks, my cousing actually ended up getting more for his minicooper after he drove it of a short cliff in California a few months after he bought it in New York. I went out there to drive it back with him and with gas and food and of course the car the whole trip cost about 19,500 he crashed it insurance gave him a check for over 20,000 lol! i guess the mark up from NY to CA is pretty significant! we thought about making a living buying used cars in NY drving them to CA and then crashing them.

slide your hand across the c pillar. if you feel a bend somewhere they most likely will total it. and ya definitely buy it back and part it out.

Hey, if you buy it back and part it, make sure to sell those taillights as "Sweet Custom Altezza" lights! Sucks you got hit but just thank yourself for having enough sense to buy an A4 rather than a Pinto or Fiesta!

man that really sucks, just after you got it back too. if i were you i would deff. plan on buying the car back, when mine was totled i bought it back for $750 and the damage was all cosmetic too. that dosent look to bad, did you drive it home? if it drives straight then the car would be easy to fix if you want to. probably about 4-5hrs on a frame jig and that car would look pretty damn close to fixed. and the worst part is if you part it out the only thing i would need is your trunk and taillight.[&o]youd b amazed how hard it is to find those fast, ive been lookin for about 2 weeks.
