So...the lesson learned here is don't let your friends text, while driving your car?

You put 15k in aftermarket crap on it but you say it's falling apart because it needs less than $1000 worth of stuff? Ok

some people get pretty lazy when it comes to maintaining their car, then they feel overwhelmed when they let it pile up and try to tackle it all at once.

my girlfriend, for example .. ahh, at least she's a girl.

AAA but im not going to get anything mover 1000 for any aftermarket parts. the rims alone where 2500 so im going to lose a lot on it.

Most of the time they give the shop doing the estimates an option to buy the totaled car back. But the owner also canhave that option to buy back then part out if it's worth... worth a try

Sorry for your loss. Next time she asks, just rent her a yellow Chevy Cavalier.
Everytime I see one of them, they are clean and driven by a girl (No wrecks).

ya the xbox install was nice. sucks that i wont be able to uninstall most of it. ill see if i can bribe the guy into letting me have at the car for a night to get more of the aftermarket parts out or even the nav screen and nitrous bottle.

the friend has her moms car now and im using it untill everything gets taken care of.

they're going to give me 13,700 for the car plus ill get to keep the rims as long as i slap on 4 doughnuts to replace them. ill probably put those up for sale on this site once i get them. they need to be refinished but are in pretty good shape otherwise.

heres a pic of the car. i dont get how only 1 airbag deployed and it was on the opposite side of the collision.

as far as getting another z, it dont see it happening. i dont like the way nissan is running their show and my a$$ is still sore from all the dealership trips i made. plus im in the process of getting a house so funds are uber tight.

thanks to everyone that chimed in with advice. the help was much appreciated.

Don't let your friends drive your car...especially a girl. I've seen too many people drive while texting and smash into a car in front of them. I'm sorry about your Z! My philosophy is: "Hey I'm driving a Z...the person texting me can wait this car and my life is too important then an impatient friend."
