wrecked my caprice last week...
Another Caprice may be down for the count. wrecked it last week, a month after I just put a Texas Speed stage 1 cam in it. Buying it back to hopefully fix it if the frame isnt tweaked. Looks to be the bumper, headlights, hood and core support got the most of it. If it is toast or to expensive to fix, going to look into buying a V6 Caprice and putting my V8 in that.

So sorry to hear that! It sounds like you are okay which is what's important. Having said that, it looks like the Caprice won that fight even if it took a good hit. Best of luck.

Man, I would have been hauled off in a straight jacket, or been on the news about a cop shooting a civilian. It seems you are physically okay, but damn!

Re: wrecked my caprice last week...
I am fine, just the typical scrapes and burns and bruising from air bags. The damage doesn't appear to be too bad, so once I get the car back I'm going to assess the damage and look into rebuilding. Gotta have a caprice.

Glad your OK.
What is the other car? It appears to be a Chevy, I can't tell what,though. It doesn't look like it crashes as well as the Caprice.

I think the other car was maybe a Chevy Aveo. It definitely didn't hold up as well as the caprice.FzCobra wrote:Glad your OK.

There's a good deal in the for-sale section on a 2014 right now with 80K miles, if you need a temp quickie replacement I'd hop on that one. Sorry about the Caprice down, if the insurance carrier will let you - try to buy the wreck back & part it.
Any way this turns out, the big thing is you're OK and can live to drive another day.
