good thing your ok! that is a pretty good "bump" if you ask me, it always has to happen right after a nice new paint job, payed off, or some nice new exterior mod i find... #1 thing is atleast your fine, they should be able to run his plate and find the guy who did it, i bet if his van was littered with enough can's they could find him still drunk ha.

Yeah im glad I was able to walk away. Dude smacked me hard as hell. I was looking at the damage and he barely hit me, but he was going so fast it messed my car up. The insurance adjuster is supposed to come tomorrow or Wednesday to give a preliminary estimate. So depending on what he says determines whether Ill start driving cars or looking at anything else.

They havent found the driver yet as far as I know. Hopefully they will.

Well insurance officially totaled it today. They said that they dont have a value for me yet so I guess ill know in a few days. What do you guys think? 03 with 86k miles. Im not sure if I want to get another 350 or get a 370. I like the 350 a whole lot but its going to be hard to find one as clean as mine because I want an 03-05. The 370 is nice and I know of one for CHEAP nearby.

Get the 370. Newer, less problems, everything has improved, more power

Glad you're okay, OP. It's never fun to see your car smashed up. I'd also guess that it's totaled. The wheel sitting in a weird spot may simply be a result of the eccentric washers on the arms having been popped out of their normal position, but I agree with the others that you WANT insurance to total the car with this type of damage.

Any updates from insurance? I think its going to come down to if your car has frame damage to determine if its totalled or not.

This has already been answered. Op good to hear that they're totaling it out. But I have the same idea, if my Z gets totaled I was going to move on to a 370z

I overlooked that. OP i'd personally just move on to something newer such as the 370z.
