Wife totalled my Z
 

Wife was heading home from seeing her parents and hydroplaned. She went across the median and hit a semi trailer. She was doing about 50. Everything up to the radiator was torn off. An engine mount is broken. And the two frame 'rails' and folded over. I will upload pictures later.
Edit: Wife is fine

Sucks to hear :(

Hope she is OK.

yah, wat about your wife? is she okay???! :confused:

Oh sorry. Yeah shes fine. Burns on her wrists from the airbag deploying.

Wow the HELL with the Z!!

Whats more important is your wife Okay?

The Z could be replaced But really sorry to hear about it. :(

I was very surprised how well the car did. The interior compartment is completely fine. Except for where the air bags came out. These cars are very well built

Sorry to hear about your car. Happy to hear your wife is ok.

Good thing, probably kept the wife safe.

:(

Sorry to hear about the accident -- at least no one got hurt.

Glad your Wife is OK...Cars are just things...Yes we love them, but they are just Cars..People are way more important, especially loved ones..

Exactly!
Thank GOD your wife is ok

WOW that thing is Toooooataled! She was lucky.

Thank god that's it.
Those burns suck, but it could've been hundreds of times worse.

(Just know that the pain starts on day 2-3, so please be sure she gets pain killers)

God Im sorry brother,

good to hear, sorry to hear about her wrist burns. sorry to hear/see your car. :(

you getting a replacement Z?

Looks like the damage will buff right out...

Too funny, no Enkei wheels ? I had Black Enkei 92 series before on my Z/28 but it was the 1980's and they were in style then...:tup:

And that 370Z took one BIG hit but the passenger compartment looks good, thank GOD..:tiphat:

Im not getting another Z :(:(:( I want another of course but I need something more practical. Its been a pain for the past year trying to haul around a 100lb Akita. Its bad when a Mustang is your 'practical' car. Anyways I was thinking about another Cobalt SS but in a sedan this time but they are nearly impossible to find. Now im looking at SUVs and trucks.
Any recommendations?

Oh never haul a 100 lb Dog around in a Z car.

Quick story...My Wife took our Wolf Mix 100 Lb Dog for a ride in our 300ZX years ago...The dog got scared and EMPTIED his poo out all over the car...I had to remove both seats, the console, the carpet and all the Interior that night to clean it....Man that was terrible...

So an SUV would be better...And man that 370Z took a big hit pretty good. No windshield breaking and the Interior stayed solid...

What about the Z sedan v8 coming out 2015 or the Z pickup???? Or even the Z minivan for people who just can't let go of a Z??

Omg nooooo that cola is spilled allover that beautiful z interior, never let a.....ohh its auto nvm.lol:eek:


Glad to hear ur wife is ok, reminds me of my crash just wasnt that baad.

Pour out a lil octane for another Z that is dead and gone.

I will drink a NewCastle Ale in honor of another fallen Z car.....:tiphat:

LMAO that was my first thought. **** there is coke all over the place!

Back in 2010, my wife totaled my 08 350z. Now I live the boring life of practical cars while dreaming of new Z ownership...don't do it!

lol Im afraid thats where I am going.

I think I might buy it back and part it out. Anyone interested in a VQ37?

Glad your wife is ok! Poor Z :( in the future I wont get mad when I get reved at by Accords, it may just be you :P

You won't make your money back on a buyback/part out

:icon18: Excellent words of wisdom, trade the Stang instead, unless it's a Boss or better.

Glad to hear that your Mrs is fine!

Sorry to hear that, glad the wife is okay, that's most important. A car is car and it can be fixed/replaced, a life cannot be replaced. Hope to see the Z back 100%.

We will be happy for you to have another Z..

Glad your wife is alright, sucks about your Z though. Life happens fast

Thoughts and prayers to you and the wife. Glad she walked away!

wait, whats that handle on the drivers side, right side of the seat?! is that a lumbar adjustment lever? how come mine doesnt have that?!?!

back on topic, its ok, you'll get a new one. just be glad shes ok!!

Obviously you don't have touring! Lol
And THAT'S why the base is uncomfortable and the touring is MUCH better to be in for 6+ hours

I'm sorry to hear about these misfortunes.

And not to take things too lightly but given everyone is fine I thought it might be good to add that the can of Coke survived as well, albeit, being all over the damn place. :tup:

Man, sorry for your Z loss :( Glad your Wifey is fine. And I'm happy to see how well it took that hit. You could get a JX37 of FX37.

Glad she's ok bro

How was the tire tread pre-accident? Was she driving on bald tires?
