totalled the z tonight.
Speed didn't really play into the wreck by it self ( Turn right by my old school that i take at 50+ almost every day going to and from work) But add in the scooter + being somewhat tired ( this was at 1am) i guess you could say it defiantly didn't help.
Anyways would anyone on here be interested in a part out. motor is good and interior is perfect. Just seeing if its worth parting out because i need some stuff off of it anyway.
Stats are
2008 350z base.
41xxx miles
new shocks and tein springs
nismo exhaust ( axle back no good anymore but rest is fine)
few other things.
I've only been in one minor accident where my car hit something. My other accident experience is being rear-ended on two occasions while stopped at traffic lights many years ago. One was a total loss, and the other was only minor damage.
Looking at the pictures of the accident scene and the car, it looks like the car is damaged in too many places. It's pretty obvious the front left fender and left side hit the brick building and the right side hit the guy wire and pole, but it looks like the right rear of the car was crushed forward by some other impact. Did you hit something else after the long slide?

Glad to hear you are ok man, Rip for the Z.
This almost happend to me at a on ramp, it had just rained and VDC and Slip turned on, I took the ram at 30 ish. As soon as I felt the rear start slipping I gave the ebrake and my brakes a tap, put her in a traight line again...
this was odd .. ;c
again glad to hear you are ok!

Well I totaled the z and was almost killed tonight but other then a small cut and a lot of pain I'm doing okay.
Got cut off by a scooter on the way home from watching the Alabama game with some friends at the bar.
Well this was going around a sharp turn ( I was doing about 45)
Well I locked up the brakes and slid it side ways while trying to counter it snapped back and jumped the curb sinding me sideways between a pool and a building.
I clipped the front driver side sending me into the building right rear first. Nailed the wall hard enough to take the car off all 4 wheels.
Finally got it stopped about 300 ft from the last hit spot.

View of the right rear from the back.

The ending point.
Ill get better pics of the crash spot and car when its light and I'm not hurting.

The front driver side is from smacking the pole that turned the car into the wall passenger rear first.
Its really hard to tell from the picture of the road but i had a lot of angle coming onto the curb and when i hit the pole is sent the rear of the car right around into the wall.



not many people can say they have done that.





hope everything works out the best for you!!
Take care out there with the next car.
another z in the graveyard, Glad your okay homie
