As long as you have coverage on your insurance. ( Sufficient coverage )

I had a brand new Acura MDX almost T-bone me this morning. A guy talking on his cellphone, not paying attention ran a yield sign, and I probably have flat spots on my tires from locking the brakes up so hard.
I should have let him hit me so I could get a new car, but I am not like that. Well that and I had a 33 gallon air compressor posing as my passenger seat, so that would not have turned out good for either of us I have a feeling.

try www.wpaa.net (woodbridge public auto auction)
my buddy bought a couple beaters there for a good price (they needed some TLC but worked flawlessly for years)
86 Acura Integra with 175k miles on it for $200 but the headgasket was blown - we spent $400 to replace it ourselves and he put 80k on it in 2 years (he does a lot of driving) - he sold it for $500 and came out ahead (especially since his daily driver was a suburban that got 11mpg on a good day)
he also just bought an Acura RL that had 272k miles on it for $3,000 and it's in decent shape...engine had good compression and pulls strongly, the transmission shifts smoothly...it had a small oil leak from the oil pan gasket but that's an easy fix...but it has a dented passenger front door that we'll get a new one from a junk yard...it's also got the factory 6 disc changer in the trunk but was missing the cartridge
