MaroonRegal Posted January 23, 2004 Report Posted January 23, 2004 Just got the Regal back from the body/frame shop. Grand total $1700. After driving it for a half-hour, here are my impressions. Good = how it was before I fucked it up. Handling: Good+. The car steers tighter. Noticably tighter. Suspension: Good-. The suspension makes all the same little noises it did a month ago, but the car dips harder in a quick stop. Engine Performance: Good+. When I got the car and got out onto the road away from my parents (who dropped it off) I punched it from about 35mph, and thought it seemed slower than normal. I started to worry and/or get pissed off. Then I stopped at a stoplight, waited for the opposite light to go yellow, then mine to go green. I hit the gas and drove it down to the floor. I noticed the normal pull, except for one thing. Before the accident, the car's pull was much less noticeable after 40 mph. Now, the car pulls consistently all the way to 60, and who knows how much farther. Yay for getting my car back! --Scott Quote

99RegalGS Posted January 23, 2004 Report Posted January 23, 2004 Hey. Gald you got your car back! Too bad it was almost half of what you paid for the car. Now don't get in any more accidents Scott. Quote
