Damn, your car got knocked da fawk out! (sorry, only phrase that comes to mind)

Is that on Mission Blvd before getting on the 60FWY West? I take it someone ran the stop sign and hit you on your passenger side?

From the pics it looks like the frame/unibody got pushed/bent towards the driver side. I doubt they'll try to fix it. Usually insurance companies will consider the cost of fixing a vehicle vs. the value (year/mileage)

Good luck

I'm gonna guess frame and suspension damage. Wouldn't even want to get it repaired.

It looks fixable to me... but I wouldn't fix it if it were my car. Get insurance to declare it totalled, get a fat check and get another car. Glad you're okay though, looks like a nasty wreck.

Dude...a lil elbow grease and a good buff will take all that right out!

On a serious note...I would say it's "totaled". Like everyone else has said, I'm sure you could fix it, but your car will never be the same after...

I agree with M6 you should save your parts before insurance picks up your Z.
I see the taillights, your AP brake setup, gramlights, and HKS setup.
All those parts can be traded for stock, and would give you extra purchasing power toward the purchase of a new vehicle.

Damnnn sorry to see this. I would not fix that, its not worth fixing given the price Z's are going for these days. Part it out and get another Z or G.

That's fairly munched.

Did you pull out in front or into the side of someone?

Sorry to see that man but it looks like a lot of work to fix it. If it were me with that much damage, i'd rather have it totalled. Sell off the parts and buy a new car... 370z!
