The car was considered "totaled", so its now the insurances car. But as the owner I have first dibs on buying it back from them, and it will be very cheap. But ill look into the aftermarket parts thing you said and see if I can get those back if I dont end up buying the car back.

Aww dude, rough. I was in a head on with my first car (integra) when some douche lost control of his tuned civic went into my lane. Also been in 2 rollovers, neither times I was driving one of em at 60mph. Not good experience's, crashing sucks. At least your ok!

Truly sucks man, glad there were no injuries involved, good luck with your next car and hope you stick with Nissan, if nothing else this proves they want to keep their customers alive.

wow! terrible accident. Glad you are ok. hopefully you can pick up another Z. I have one for sale and i'm local if you are interested.

I understand though, the I-75 interstate between Tampa and Bradenton is somewhat like the "florida autobahn"... going 70mph (speed limit) will get you run over by semi's.

Your Z looks pretty sick. I need to wait for court hearing and to see what my insurance does, but I will keep it in mind.

Ive also been looking at a few Audi TT's and BMW 330ci's.

Glad you're okay man, but seriously racing should be on the track where there is less debris and no speed limits.

Glad you made it out of that mess without serious injury. Flipping a car is never fun.

I'm guessing you're talking about the previous generation TT, its a good looking car, but when it comes to performance its nothing but a Golf. See what Top Gear has said about it, and after driving one I agree with them. BMW 330Ci is a very nice car on the other hand, its very balanced.
