And hopefully most of those mods can go with you into the '07. I don't see why not, engine isn't THAT different, and I don't know what mods you have anyway. Maybe I will pickup NS and see for myself.
I had the car insured for more than BB. I took a modification list and a spreadsheet of the parts and cost to the insurance company about a year and a half ago. I have provided about 3 and half inches of receipts to my adjuster. We will see what they say next week. All of the perfomrance parts on the car are toast. The only thing that might be ok is the new rotors I just put on the car. I could also pull the stereo. My experience has been when they total a car they want everything. I might work out something on parts with them, depends on what they offer me in a settlement.

Ouch. I figured maybe a few mods may have survived, but I guess not. I didn't even know insurance companies offered such plans for above BB coverage.

The worst part is that the car also fell off a flatbed tow truck on the way to the body shop. This took out the back of the car and broke one of my front wheels. Both accidents are not my fault and I am working with my insurance company to get it resolved on two different claims.

This morning I found out it was totaled from the adjuster; however I am working with my insurance on a settlement. I had a large rider on the car and have provided all my receipts. I should know the outcome next week.

Needless to say - Thank you to NISSAN SPORT for providing the coverage of my car. In case you have not seen the cover I will attach it here.

I still can't believe it. My Nissan Sport came yesterday and I just sat and looked at the article in disbelief! That car was a beast. I really enjoyed meeting Jeremy and his wife Danya for our North Georgia mtn runs. Seeing that car in my rearview mirror or hearing it roar past me was sheer joy!!

Jeremy, like Dave said, you have your life....that's priceless...a car project, like the Phoenix, will rise again!!


Here are a few tribute pics I have form ZDayZ 2006....Jeremy is in the first pic on the right and Danya is on left.

Thanks!

Well - still waiting on the insurance company to give me a number. Seems like it is taking forever. I am working on getting an 07 now.

Insurance is paying what I had it insured for. They put the value higher so I am going to get some parts that I can reuse for my next car. Nothing else.

Highly recommend taking your receipts to your agent and increasing your coverage if you have a highly modded car.

Bad things will turn to good. Your next Z will be even better.

BTW I did enjoy your expose in NISSAN Sport.

Well I have ordered an manual 07 Roadster. Wanted to change it up since I had already built a Coupe. Did not go with the new Solar Orange, color does not look right.

We are going to get it painted when we install the body kit.
