Default What are the chances of my Z being totaled?

So friday night I got into a wreck and Ive been worried all weekend wondering if my Z (2003 base model, 89,xxx miles) will be totaled or if the insurance will go through with fixing it. So far I know the front and rear bumper, driver side taillight, the hatch and perhaps the driver side quarter panel will need to be replaced, as well as the wheel hub that broke when it hit the curb. Located in NC if that helps. thanks guys.

well since you only show one area in the pics it is hard to tell..... i am going to guess you were street drifting or being retarded in general.

Don't have anymore pics as my phone had died and these were the only ones I was able to get. But I lost control tying to avoid a deer that ran across the road as I was making a turn. luckily I got out without a scratch and no airbags were deployed.

Yup, full coverage. I just hope it won't be totaled as I am still paying it off. I should find out by either tomorrow or tuesday, just wanted to get a bit of input to prepare myself.

i do believe the quarter was pretty dented in from the impact with the utility pole. but that utility pole sure did save me from the car flipping over into a creek.

will keep you updated, thanks man.

Are we playing psychic estimates?

Year? Miles?

Extent of damage?

I'll play.

I have a car that has damage. How much time will it take to walk to St Louis from Kansas City?

Well on the police report, the officer wrote estimate damage to be 6000. I want to believe that the frame isn't damaged but then again, I'm not sure. it's a 2003 base with 89, xxx miles.
