Dang, Thats a bad turnout for havin some fun... At least you guys are ok. Been working at a collision center for years and it would have to be alot of damage to total out a newer Z. For instance you would need about 24k in damage to total out a 35,000.00 dollar car. Airbag deployment has nothing to do with it. Most companies have a 70-80 percent threshold to be reached before they total your vehicle. I have seen some go as much as 85 percent of the value of the vehicle. Weve put in new frames, engines, airbags, you name it. State Farm however will total one before they put in a new frame. We get a few trucks that get totaled from time to time because of this. Just contact your insurance company and choose a reputable collision center.
