    Ya gotta wonder if the sucker has a lot more damage than the pictures shows, the Lotus is a quite fragile car.

    You do have to ask for diminished value, they will NEVER mention it. I'm still waiting for all the $$$ from my wreck, I don't think I'll ever see it though. Ch. 13 laws....

    He called it a 911 so forgive those of us who assumed he actually had a 911. BTW that's a 914 front end, not a 911 front end.

    He also had a $45,000 Lotus till it bounced off the floor...............

    And for anybody thinking he's bitching about this a little too much...

    Read about his son

    Kinda puts things into perspective, eh?

    Just restating what he had on his site about the car when he bought it.

    The car is Summer Yellow, with black velour inserts and charcoal loop carpeting.

    The previous owner installed a 911 Carrera front end, and added 4 to 5 bolt adapters in the rear.

    Geez Adam..... Did ya ever thin that maybe wrxmr2eater was just bitter and jealous.

    I also found the Lotus guys coment about the 911 strange, maybe it was his way of trying to put a positive spin on what had to be a really bad day.....

    And yes it is very sad about his son.

    Makes sense. I don't know what I'd do if that happened to me (at a place that it shouldn't happen at). I was pissed off enough by the wreck (and all the stuff that has followed, like the fact that I have yet to receive a single penny from the other insurance company).

    Sure doesn't look like a 911 front end, looks like 914?????

    Yeah, I assume he changed it out as one of the first "mods" he did to it. Strange that he said that about the 911 front-end but the pics don't match up...

    Wonder if it has a 911 suspension?? (Just a wild ass guess on my part. )

    I wish my garage was a clean as his!

    Yes, that's it....

    914/6 models used a similar suspension and brakes to the 911, giving the car handling and braking superiority over the 4-cylinder Volkswagen models in addition to higher power output.
    I agree, that is one nice garage.

    Are all insurance companies required to pay "disminshed value"? Year before last when some stupid Axx Hxxx back up at the stop light and crunch my front end. I asked and the insurance company refused to pay!
