Drunk Driver Hit Me head on in my Z (pics)
I heard on the news that the Z is the third most dangerous car in a collision... I beg to differ with them. If some one can walk out of that accident i would say they are designed pretty well

Damn dude glad you walked away and sorry about your car...I went through the same thing almost 2 years ago. Hit headon by an electric truck on a curve. It was a modded Pontiac Vibe ( I know POS car..but it was the 1st car I did by myself) it protected me pretty good but I still have permananet spine damage. Def keep an eye on things within the next 2 weeks, my initial catscan was fine but 2 weeks later was when my bruising on my internal organs apeared and I started urinating blood bad. Here's the only pictures I have of the car from the wrecker yard.
Wish my dad would have got the interior pictures, thats where it did most of the damage..the entire dash came in, the door caving in pushed me into the passenger side and my right arm busted the center console off.

glad you're okay. But just so you know, you're not going to find an 04 Brickyard. They weren't made that year, only in 03.
Good luck getting everything taken care of and getting into a new Z.

Sorry to see you had to go thru this.
I went thru a very similar instance in January when a extended cab dually with trailer (loaded with a Street paver) came thru a red light - best of luck healing and getting thru the instance of the other drivers lack of insurance or respect for the law.
the Z is a safe ride - there are many survivors from some very serious wrecks!
my right side matched your left! Be well and good luck on your new Z!

First of all, thank god you're alright man- Drunk driver with no license and insurance is about as stupid as it gets. Second of all, after all this talk about the Z being the worst with driver fatalities... I was in a bad accident where my Z got totalled cuz some guy decided not to pay attention and ram into the back of my Z at 50mph, yet I walked away with no injuries. I wrote a letter to Nissan of North America just letting them know how much I like the car and they posted it at the dealer I bought my new car at.
