I keep it for a little over a year after that and ultimately traded it in on the 370. To my surprise, it never came up at the dealer when I traded it in. I ended up getting $500 over top KBB trade value for it and $300 over invoice on the 370 (most of that to cover shipping from another dealer).

Fix it, sell it (or trade it) and get a new one. You'll be glad you did.
I hear what you are saying. My mother went through this when one of her cars was stolen but recovered a couple of days later undamaged. She just couldnt get over the fact that some strangers were doing God knows what in her car. She traded days later.

Even if they do not total this car you should fix it up and sell it asap.
Definetly has frame damage.
If you can find someone who is great at fixing up frames then keep it.
(Not too many people around)
Sucks but hey at least u weren't driving it!
Insurance should be helping you out.

So my car just got painted yesterday! I went to go check it out today and all i have to say is wow! they basically repainted the entire car expect the hood. I was a little nervous since ive heard pearl white is a super hard paint job to perfect, but the painters at the shop had no problem with it. Here are a coupe iphone of pics of the car right out of the booth. I cant wait to see it polished and detailed. Im so extied to get back into my Z soon!!!

Might be a dumb question: If they didn't put a clear coat would that classify as a matte paint, or are matte paints (such as the new Hyundai Veloster) made to be more durable since it is designed to be applied without clearcoat?
