I just posted the wheels up in the classifieds. Asking $1600.

Hit a wet spot on a curvy road ... went through the median and hit a tree. ouch.

08 production year, new wheels = new tires... particularly nice wheels plus mods indicates pride of ownership so they're probably good tires as well.

Lack of elaboration and/or anger...

.'. probably too fast.

Sucks though.

As Taps plays quietly in the background, a soft voice says...

ouch! that looks terrible. But the most important thing is you, the driver, is okay! If you are able to salvage anything?....is your engine cover still okay? Is it stock, untouched? (its the two piece plastic under the strut bar, in case you are not sure what I mean) Again, sorry for your loss. My car is #931, so im not that far below you

Glad you are OK. Could have been worse. Where there is life there is hope.
Whatever happens don't forget the Z community.

I've had total losses in 3 states, and have always been able to buy the car back for nickels; strip it, then junk it. There are a LOT of good parts on that car; even if they wanted $5k for the buy-back I'd likely take it (and whatever they offer is negotiable - do your homework on fair values for NISMOs like yours. You need replacement value including tax.)
