1. Go to a mechanic and get them to inspect it to see what is wrong. Don't go in asking them to "replace the whole exhaust and clutch pedal," before you even know there's a problem. Get an estimate. I'd even ask the mechanic or service manager/advisor the question about whether you should pay it out-of-pocket or report it to insurance. Have a good idea that you want insurance to cover it before calling your insurance. Just calling them and asking could result in them opening a case on it and having that affect your standing with them.

2. You probably don't want to volunteer the information that you were on the phone when this happened. You'll just want to leave that out unless you're talking to your attorney or you're in court. And I'm not saying you should deny that you were on the phone, but rather just avoid the topic. If someone is curious enough and/or this goes to court, they'll just pull your phone records and catch you lying, and then you're in a world of hurt. And if you tell the mechanics or your friends that you were on the phone, and they wind up interviewed as well, they're not likely to lie for you.

3. Take responsibility for your mistake. It is rare that a single car accident is going to be truly blamed on someone else. You do have lights, eyes, and a car you can slow down while you turn...

4. Get off the damn phone when you're driving.

Not stupid, just naive. Hopefully, something is learned from it.

I've done enough stupid things in 55 years that it's finally begun to sink in with me.

Some good advice here. Unfortunately you didn't use enough punctuation marks. I brought a few extras...........!!!, ......??!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:icon17:

I think we scared him off, lol

I think it's more the fact that not one of us offered him helpful advice on how he could get a new exhaust and clutch pedal for free under warranty. :rofl2:

Was thinking the same thing! I mean if you're going to post questionable posts, prepare for a backlash. No one got personal, we just took jabs at his interesting situation. :tup:

Well. This IS the internet... Watch I'll run a test.
Fùck you.
Fùck you, and you, and you, and you.

Lol, well, I'm all for him TRYING to rip Nissan off, but damn it would be hard...
The exhaust he should swap out regardless

In 10 minutes that didn't really work out as planned...
Either everyone got offended, or no one took it to heart because, guess what. It's the internet... Grow thicker skin...

Fixed :tiphat:

Oh man... you mean I've got 20 more years until it start to sink in? :ugh2:

Bite me a$$hole

Too indirect. You didn't call anyone out by name or quote their post.

LMAO!!! :icon18:

If I'm included in one of those "you"s, then fuque you right back, mofo. Do they make your shirts in a men's size that would fit you? :rolleyes:

I don't know why you guys bitch about my insurance payment and the a7 with nismo ? I am 20 years old and I had my license when I was 19 and I got a 370z touring which is A7 and than I joined here after 6 month I trade my z in for a nismo ,!!!! That is ! Just like that simple ? You guys who ever is paying 60 a month maybe you got your licensen when you was 16 and you are 40. Or over now ? Don't. Be joules if you can't get a bran new nismo when you was 20 ??? This is my third in past year believe or not ?

Mother of God.

Out of respect for the brain cells I have left after reading that, I'll only touch on one point- owning three cars in the last year isn't something to brag about, it's financial stupidity.
