Poor Baby

Today really wasn't my day.....
My baby got hit by some careless dirver. There is only 1500 miles on her..... My question is can I have a loaner if I bring my car back to MB for body work?

Sorry to hear about your incident. About the loaner, it depends on the dealer. Technically, they don't have to give you a free loaner because its not in for a warranty repair. Your dealer may be more sympathetic. Won't your insurance pay for a rental car?

Sorry, man that's shady. If it's not your fault, the other guy's insurance should pay for it!

If it was his/her fault, their ins. co should pay for a rental.
I see that you traded an RSX-S in on your C230. What did you think of the RSX? When I test drove one, I thought it was good only if you run autocross, etc. But it seemed very rough for day to day use.

Hi speedfrk,

Just noticed that you also live in Atlanta, GA. What color is your coupe? and in which area do you live? I live in Duluth area and I have seen only one Black Automatic in this area.

Just curious...

I live in Douglasville. My coupe is also white. I saw a black coupe yesterday on Thornton rd, but other than that, I haven't see any others. They are still pretty rare.

It's his fault, but he seems like a taxi driver and my insurance agent told me it's hard to deal with the taxi company. Now the only thing I can do is wait for the answer from taxi company. Is it necessary to wait for the answer and then get my car to repair shop?
I really liked my RSX, but its quality is not as high as its price. It was a really rough decision to buy the car. I regreted for that. To look at better side, at least I learn something......:p
