Also someone tried to cut into my car earlier this year(the seal around the window), the window motors were starting to act up. I also developed that sound with the rear bearings I believe that makes it sound like you have some change in a jar rolling around in the back. I had those replaced at 8,000 miles under warranty but it was starting to do it again.

Also I had a strange vibration in the transmission in 4th gear(you felt it when you pulled the stick all the way against the gate). This one is smooth in all gears.

If they total the vehicle they will give me Kelly Blue Book Dealer Retail for my vehicle which basically gives me all those upgrades for free!

I will know on Monday.

The seats are trashed from the airbags deploying. However, the insurance company will keep the car if they total it for parts I assume. Although since it took a hit on both sides I don't think they can use any of the parts for repairing another Z, but they will probably try to get something for it from salvage.
