My 2003 Touring was hit on the drivers side by a Suburban Saturday Jan. 17th as I was driving home from running errands. As soon as I was hit, the car lost control and I was thrown into a telephone pole 20ft away.

NO ONE WAS SERIOUSLY INJURED, THANK GOD! I have whiplash that is almost gone, and a few scratches and bruises. I made a micro-site to tribute to her (I called her Black Betty after the song). http://www.avaladirect.com/accident

Since this might be my last post here on MY350z.com, I just wanted to thank everyone for all the advice, tips, used parts and support everyone on this forum has given me. This forum is probably the best I have ever been a part of.

So now it's time to move on. Unfortunately, I am looking for another car. But the catch is, it cannot be a coupe, so in retrospect, no 350z or no 370z. I have narrow my choices down to 2 sedans. What do you guys think, 2004-2008 Acura TL or 2004-2008 Audi S4. Since we all share (or shared) great taste in cars, I really value your opinion.

Thanks.

 

Looks like you didn't look left before pulling out into traffic... ?

 

...at least you're alive.

 

In fo da age of da OP!

 

No, I was going straight, the suburban was making a left through 3 lanes and I was in the 3rd lane. Two cars stopped in the other lane to let him take a left, and he hit me. It was 100% his fault, and I got everything taken care of for the car.

The other drivers insurance ended up giving me $18,000 for a 2003 with 46,000 miles. Pretty good I thought.

 

damn go get the brembos off there for me!!

 

Your Z took a freakin' pummeling & you walked away. Something to be thankful for indeed.

 

Sorry to hear that. But I like the picture that you look at the totaled Z.

 

You don't want a 370z? You don't have to give up just because your 03 got killed.

Stay with family or even get 07-08 350z.

 

lawl at failed assumption. Wtf's up with january? Is it official lets crash or get crashed into month??? Oh well, glad to her you'r okay. Good luck with whatever car you go for next. Oh and i.m.o, go for an S4. All audi just look so damn sexy

 

Those don't look like Brembos... just painted.

 

glad your ok dude was a nice car. I would go with the TL ive always had a softspot for them i think they are really sharp and nice cars. Good luck.

 

3rd z crash today...

 

+1

sorry to hear this happen to you, but glad your still alive =)

get another Z unless you dont want to, dont let this accident discourage you from getting another Z

 

give me those orange leathers

 

... nevermind

 

Damn thank god you walked out. Score one for high safety rating!

 

Unless your getting the AWD TL I would say you'd be happier with the S4 imo

 

that sucks man, get a 335 sedan or something

of the two I vote TL though, the look pretty good and will last (honda product)

 

350Z's are dropping like flies. The total number can only go down now. 350Z rarity is inversely proportional to total number of 350Zs.
