I broke my corsica : (

I drove into a curb going about 40mph. Sounds like a dumb thing to do but it was that or hit 2 other cars so I chose the curb. I have yet to take a close look at it but the obvious damage is the control arm, stabilizer link, transaxle (broken at the CV joint), tie rod, tire, rim, and minor body damage. I am wondering what else I should look for when I do finally dig into it, and some general prices as to what parts would cost. Any body have any ideas? Thanks (damage on the driver side)

look for a bent or twisted structure. Before you get into repairing it, you might want to have a body shop put it on their rack, do some measurements and see if the structure has been affected.
