    Default 06 STI wrecked, complete running chassis

    I have an 06 STI that was involved in a moderate collision. 9800 miles on the car. The vehicle is damaged in the front and rear, but the drivetrain wasnt impacted. The car still runs and drives fine, although its not street-legal anymore, and the airbags did not deploy. The front and rear fenders/bumpers, hood and truck are a loss, but the doors and all glass are intact. The interior is perfect. The wheels/tires are undamaged.
    I need to decide whether or not to fix it, or take the insurance money and sell the car for salvage.
    So, Im posting this up to see if anyone is interested in it. The drivetrain is fine and would be great for a swap. As most of the people know who have seen the car run, its a very strong running stock setup.
    I have it from a good source that the drivetrain alone should be worth +/- $12k complete, then another +/- $3k for the interior and +/- $1k for wheels/tires.
    Anyway, Im motivated to get this car sold, because Im paying storage for it right now and I dont want to deal with fixing it or parting it out.
    Im looking to sell the whole car as-is. I will not be selling any individual parts off of the car.
    If you are seriously interested in this, please PM me immediately. Im willing to negotiate heavily on the car if I can get it sold in the next day or two.
    Thanks.

    **disclaimer... In the pic of the front, the front of the car is up on a tow dolly. This is because the guy didnt realize it was AWD. I got to the scene of the accident before the car was moved anywhere like this. I made them take it down and tow it on a flatbed instead. So, it was never towed by the front wheels. I figured Id get that out there before someone started wondering.

    Just for future reference, a simple "pics up shortly" will go a long way.

    Hope you weren't hurt. good luck with the sale.

    Thanks for all the response already.
    Yes, this is the one Scott is talking about.

    The car is pretty close to my house, so I can meet someone to look at it at lunch time if you need.

    There may be a few days delay before you could actually pick it up, b/c I have to get all the paperwork done for the bank/insurance/body shop first. I already have the estimate and my insurance is ready to pay out immediately.

    btw, driftmunkey, your PM's are full.

    Yeah, it wasnt really his fault. He got hit by a dude who ran a red light, who pushed him into the car in-front of him. I cant really get pissed about that unfortunately.

    All PM's responded to.

    I dont have a deposit yet from Matt, but he told me he would let me know in the morning. Since he made the first offer, ill give him until lunch to get back to me. After that, I need to sell it, so its up to whoever brings a deposit first.

    Why sell? That'll just buff right out...

    sucks about your whip man... good luck getting her sold!

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.
