ouch
How bout this. Before I got my 35th anny. (about 2 and a half weeks ago) I was driving an f150 for about 6 years. But anyways, the engine seizes up on the highway during rush hour. I manage to pull the thing over to the breakdown lane, I called a friend for a ride, and when I'm on the phone getting a tow, my phone dies. I make it home, get a tow, and head back when they say they are supposed to be there. My car is gone. Not there, gone. I called the cops, asking who would tow my car. I called the place twice, and they said they do not have my car, and no one else would tow it. I finally call it in stolen, later the cop shows up, and tells me that this place does actually have my car, because someone hit my non-moving, hazard blinking truck. BTW: Truck had 22's, Black and Silver racing stripes (very visible!) along with everything from shaved door handles to fenders/bumpers/whatever else possible. And I left my wallet in the car, and to get it out of the impound I need it released through the police, license in hand, because it was involved in an accident. I had to go into South Atlanta at 1:30 in the morning (a place you don't want to be at 1:30 in the afternoon). Then this crackhead working there tells me he told me it was in their north lot. About 15 minutes from where I live, or 45 minutes from where I was. Awesome.
Car dies and someone hits it, and I spend 6 hours, between talking to cops, and going to the intersection of Stabbem & Run in the middle of the night, to find my truck.
Course now I got a Z, so there is a very happy ending.

lol....man that sucks..but both times you seem to be lucky in terms of getting your car fixed up with no issues. I feel your pain. I've had two incidents with my Z within 1.5 years of ownership.
My previous car; first new car got hit twice within 9 days (less than 300 miles on it) It got hit in the front by a H2, and couple days later, got rearended by a dead guy behind the wheel.( some old dude had a heart attack while driving). Over 3k in damage and both sides smashed.
O trust me I feel your pain I got a rather long driveway (Fits like 15 cars) I had myt car backed in right outside the garage was planning on going out later ... my buddy and his infinite wisdom smashed his Vr4 3000Gt into it was such a small amount of damage HA or so I though ... 1800dollars worth of damage later... parking lot on thing let it happen in your own driveway ... I had to go for a walk because I was going to kill him and he wasnt happy either being his car is worth a little money as well
my first car was a nissan 100nx and the car was really cursed i had 2 accidents and he was total loss after the nissan i bought a clk230 and really nothing ever happendso a few months ago i find a z i like and also the prise

man that really sucks, well atleast the first guy stuck around, in my first car is got rear ended like that and it was 2k that my insurance had to pay, but luckily i was then a co-signer on my parents plan
Damn that sucks.
I remember when I got mine last year in july. After three weeks of ownership of my new car I got hit by someone merging into me causing about $1,500 in damages. I get the car back and 2mos later I get rear ended being stuck in traffic on the higway causing 4grand in damages.

Ouch. That sucks. Similar thing happened to my poor Z too. It was parked in a parking lot and somebody backed into it right on the passenger side front corner. $4K worth of damages. Never been in any accidents and then this. I feel your pain.
Well to make matters worse, the body shop that did the work on this second hit ended up giving it back to me with one of the dents still visible when looking at the bumper from certain angles! Unbelievable...
Had to take my car back down to them to have em fix it right this time. I am beginning to forget what its even like to drive my car because i only have it in 2 day increments ha ha /sigh
I guess on the bright side, at this rate i will have the lowest mileage Z ever!
