Mazdaspeed3 vs Chevy Silverado 2500 HD

No, not my car. Kinda sorta wish it was so I could find an easy way to get out of it. Good friend's car, he's my parts hook up, and I'm about to get a ton of parts fo free!!!!!

You going to get some wheels outta the deal?

Are those BBS's? What else you Vulture'in off of it?

CassiesMan · 02-11-2010, 07:13 PM

Not real BBSes, lol, just BBS caps. He's keeping them for his next car, but I'm taking his TiAl BOV, Springs, and if he doesn't get another Speed3 then the Hypertech Tuner. Also taking his stock turbo and might be sending it off to get some work done to it.

That shit'll buff out.

Got hit so hard that the intercooler got pushed all the way up there! lol jk

Thats a pretty bad smash though

Truck wins I take it...

If I were you, I'd take any and everything I could from it and sell it if he's giving it up for free.

We are waiting to find out right now if it is totaled. If it is, I'm taking the springs, his Hypertech, wheels, brakes, TiAl BOV, torque damper, and turbo. Right now he's in a Prius rental car, and we are trying to figure out how to make it go faster. We managed to go through a quarter tank in one day...its gonna take some work but I think we will have the most fuel inefficient Prius ever.

No mods for me

. Insurance company didn't total the car. Even though it hit hard enough tp push the turbo THROUGH the fire wall and, hand to god, rip out a hole in the intake manifold, they didn't total it. Is sad.

CivRacer95 · 02-15-2010, 01:01 PM

Just total yours then...totalled car, insurance check, new start. So there'll be a little hike in your insurance payments. Who cares right? Am I right guys?

CassiesMan · 03-01-2010, 11:12 AM

And newwest update...body shop found another 5k in damage. So its totalled. As of now, he is looking at another Speed3 or an older Civic (he started off has a Honda guy). If he goes with the Civic, I'm getting all his parts...fo free!

TorchedStealth · 03-01-2010, 12:53 PM

Win!!! As much as I would never advise this otherwise, tell him to get the honda so you can has parts!

CivRacer95 · 03-01-2010, 01:36 PM

Why not ask him to buy your Speed3 from you? Only makes sense if he wants another one.

But then again, a bonus on a shopping cart full of free parts is a good thing as well.

Coin toss it: Heads sell your car to him, Tails take his parts from him.

I would, but I owe 20k on the Speed (yay for zero credit...whores). Ifn I had say, five grand in cash, then it would be no biggy to flip it for five and eat the loss. But I don't, so that plan is out.

CassiesMan · 03-04-2010, 07:58 PM

And in the end, no free parts.

He's getting another Speed3 out here for 12k. Good buy on his part. Only slightly disappointed, because he still owes me for gun work, lol.

CivRacer95 · 03-05-2010, 01:33 AM

Damn...sucks to hear how that turned out.

Well, you could always go the route of "totalling" his next Speed3. I'll leave that to you to figure out how you want to do it.
