Yes it would have made it easy.

i know a lot of people who were drunk driving crashed, left the plate at the crash, they all got woke up in a bad way. cops at your door at 3 am sucks.

I really dont understand how that guy has NO fluid trails.... NONE....... I bet he lives nearby and its in his garage. I would look at every ****ing driveway for ANY kind of fluid trail within 10min from your house, there is no way he made it any further.

not going to ask how you know this but.........
all the cops have to do is look at all the body shops within 50 miles for a white 2004-2005 malibu with a smashed up front end and blown block. chances are thats your guy. I feel bad that you lost your car like that best of luck

one guy said the cops came to his door with his plate in their hands, and said, you missing something? he looked over at his car all crashed up in the drive way. he then realized he was in big trouble.

Who takes a 2004-2005 Malibu to a body shop?

Lets be honest here the Malibu and Grand Prix aren't even in the same ballpark. Malibu is more in line with a Grand Am/G6.

Still a inexpensive early 2000 GM fwd car... So yea pretty similar. A G6 is also rather similar.
Not everyone enjoys driving some pos that smashed up and/or missing exterior panels or has mismatched panels. Some guys take pride and even though it may only be a Malibu.

It's an assumption here, but I'm sure the Malibu driver had to be pretty drunk to come up and smash the car like that. That being said, most people that have pride in their cars usually avoid driving them when they are drunk. Just my 2 cents
12-30-2013
Agreed!
Well in his or hers case I doubt they'll be bringing in for repair... If they do so it's a huge big red flag on what happened.

I find it hard to believe the Malibu driver wouldn't have had even the slightest head injurie with the impact it made ,he would have least hit his head on the the windscreen or have whiplash or a concussion
So also be on the the look out for anyone in the aera that might be hinding injuries or suddenly laying low

The officer said he checked the local hospital and urgent care centers. Also checked local body shops. No signs of them yet. He would have definately had a face full of airbag. I also could not believe there was no fluid trail but it was raining all night on and off so even if it leaked coolant it wasnt enough to leave any signs that I could see.
Im not going to give up too quickly but it seems like this guy might have slipped though the cracks. Hope he will slip up and let the car out where someone will recognise it.

The adjuster gave me $3500 for the car minus $500 ded. I also have time to pull off most of the mods and return the car to stock. Not great but it could have been worse.

effin blows.....I had a hit and run happen to my parked car, a 05 civic at the time, that I just swapped in a gsr motor....lucky just over $3k in damage....funny cause I had SI wheels on, and the body shop replaced the one damaged wheel not knowing any better....totaled a year later....

Stuff like this is why I'm afraid to dump too much money into my car. If something happens and it gets totalled, the book is getting lower and lower all the time.
I'm still planning on going forward this spring with an IC and some bolt ons, but stuff like this still makes me wonder how smart I am to do so...
