That doesn't look too bad at all, I don't understand how that would be considered totaled. Is it because the air bags went off?

Geez, the photos really don't tell the tale I guess. That sucks. Glad you're okay.

It surely saw its share of nice wheels over its lifespan...

Insurance is probably totaling it because the airbags went off. When I wrecked my last car and the airbags went off the insurance totaled it out. The interior damage from those things alone was more than the car was worth.

But thats just my

It's the airbags fault your car got totaled. Had a 00 bmw and hit a pothole that stopped the car in its tracks. six airbags popped out, screwed up the interior and totaled the car. everything else was fine except for a bent rim and bent axle shaft. But hey, If that had not happened , I probably would'nt have my z
