Rear Ended, Car Totaled, What Next
 
First off... I'm fine, no worries.
Got rear ended on the highway when traffic suddenly stopped. Crushed the rear end broke the tail light but didn't damage the fenders. Brake light stayed on after impact. Must be some frame damage in there. I even put a dent in the headliner with my head. If your tall, get rear ended and feel the metal in the roof reinforcement with your head you've probably damaged the head liner.
Looking for recommendations for upgrades.

Glad you are ok. I'd get another Z. One with a Fast Intentions Twin Turbo kit :driving:

I'd love that but...California. I'll be staying within CARB restrictions.

Budget would help..
R8 v8s are getting pretty (relatively) inexpensive.

GTRs are also getting affordable

Happened to me last year. Won't lie i was going to sit on my payout but got a killer deal (under msrp + 1.5% finance rate due to company benefits) and got the 19 nismo (my 19 build in 18) last september.

Slapped on a fi exhaust last week and holy sheet. Handling is perfect for street. Exhaust gives le burble pops and nice noise but not wtf was that.

Do it!

:iagree: Keep an eye on your health the next few weeks as symptoms may surface. Document any headaches, pains etc...

Good luck with it all.

I have just been through being rear ended myself. Totaled car and 2 herniated disk, one requiring surgery. If the insurance money is not there, you better have uninsured/under-insured motorist.
