sorry man wouldn't count on it, I'm sure it'll be serviceable but it just won't feel as tight

Glad no one got hurt. Also, what does it take for the insurance company to deem it a total loss? Isn't that a better option considering how much damage was done to the Z and all..

Don't worry. If you have a good shop doing the work it should be as good as new...

You expect a car that is built on an aluminum chassis that had it's rear suspension all but torn out to be put together as good as new? It will look great, it always did, and it will drive fine. However let me ask all those who say it will be "as good as new" would you buy a car with this report after repairs or a brand new one...and why would you make that choice?

Aluminum chassis? You must be confused as it is plain old steel. You have no idea how much damage was incurred. Might just be a snapped (aluminum) suspension arm which is what it looks like. Regardless, Modern laser alignment techniques can put a unibody chassis back on the money. Whether or not you or I would buy that car after is a whole different issue. Sounds like it's a lease so that's an issue for down the road (and another reason to not buy off-lease cars)

With that logic, it may drive even better.

Well?
