I've joined the wrecked Z club... [not as severe]

Rui Z · 03-19-2011, 01:06 AM

Welcome to the club!!!! I hope everything goes smoothly in getting it repaired.

djpathfinder · 03-19-2011, 01:07 AM

Good to hear you're OK. Keep us posted on the ins co, repairs, etc.

aling lukring · 03-19-2011, 03:22 AM

Glad your okay!plus kudos to you for staying calm and keeping your composure. I got rear ended once while I was waiting at a traffic light when I heard tires screeching then bam! Right into me as soon as my car stopped I jumped out and ran to the other car and tried to open the door but was locked then I took of my shirt and wrapped it around my hand and was ready to hit the drivers window then I saw the ladys face in pure terror as I was about to hi the glass when I just realized what I was doing. Scary moment for me to just snap like that without thinking what I was about to do. Anyways I'm jus glad you were able to handle a situation like that in very controlled manner.

Sorry to hear this...glad you are all right...the reason i got my 40th is because 4 weeks ago my 350 was rendered totalled..i was only doing 20mph but do to the impact, the airbag went off...it was sad to see my 350 go but good things come out in the end...i got the 40th now.

I just do not understand why people have to drive these huge SUVs'.

fairladyZ34 · 03-19-2011, 01:23 AM

Glad no one got hurt, including your rim!

DIGItonium · 03-19-2011, 01:28 AM

Yup... if the rim got hurt, it would truly suck. I'd rather deal with the headlights than the rims.

Marco's inbox is full. I've not contacted 180|Customs yet. The headlight design will be the same, but the components will be different. Gotta find someone who can do it since I'm not very crafty. I also need to find a good deal on a new set of headlights as well.

either that pic was taken a bit after the accident or someone hit ur parked z, going by how your rotors collected some rust

houkouonchi · 03-19-2011, 02:00 AM

Wow this is kind of like this person that I saw a couple weeks ago:

Also posted this in another thread. Probably would have been better if I just came to a stop but oh well.

I really don't get what posses someone to just stop blocking a lane like that. Luckily I also had another lane to go into.

I mean like WTF? there was no reason for them not to just go after that instead they just stop completely blocking my lane.

Then this other *** hat just goes into my lane through the left turn causing me to completely stop to avoid hitting him. Such BS.

........... Look at that rust!

This thread makes me sad

DIGItonium · 03-19-2011, 01:42 AM

Dude, that made my stomach sink to the floor. So your car came out looking new after all the work was done?

Despite the nature of the accident, I'm grateful for reacting fast enough to slow down the car and keep it straight to minimize the severity of the accident. I can only imagine the damages at 40 MPH and the condition of the occupants. There were a couple of kids in the backseat, so I'm happy they did fine.

fairladyZ34 · 03-19-2011, 01:45 AM

My insurance company declared it totaled. I miss that car but the G37 is nice too
