370z nismo t-boned!

Evansblue787 · 04-26-2014, 10:15 AM

My nismo 370z got hit by a guy not paying attention and blew through a stop sign. He tried to brake at the last second in the rain and slid and hit me. His insurance is covering since it was his fault. Almost $6000 in damages. Does this look bad or will it come out just as good as before the wreck? I only owned her for 30 days before this s### happened.

I sure hope it is nothing more than cosmetic. Best of luck.

It should be fine. Is it me or just the pic, the rear wheel looks shifted, is any suspension damaged?

Ouch, hope it's a smooth recovery

looks like its steering from the rear wheels

doesn't look good

That sucks.

As they say around here, that rear wheel looks katty-whompers. Hoping for the best for you on the repairs.

Good luck.

sorry about that bro.

the hit bent the rear suspension very badly as you can see the rear wheel is having a serious toe-out.

to be honest, good luck, I hope the main chassis isn't bent otherwise the Z could be totaled.

or even if they get it fixed, the handling might not be the same as original.

good luck.

4 months later we're gonna have a new member coming here driving a nismo and start a thread about excessive feathering on the left-rear and some handling issue.....
