yet another Z totaled (never thought I'd say it)

Pharmacist · 12-01-2011, 12:40 AM

Never thought I'd be the next one to join the long (and expanding) list of totalled Z's.

To keep a long story short. Yesterday, I was going south on the road. Another car was making a left from incoming left turn lane lane. He starts creeping very slowly into the intersection, failing to yield the right of way. He was already into my southbound lane as I go into the intersection. I swerve to the right lane to avoid him as he's still creeping into the southbound lanes. the front left of his car clipped the rear left of my car. After he clipped me, the car spun out, hit the traffic light backwards, and ended up with the light post flattening the rear hatch and roof. Fortunately no one was injured. Still waiting for the insurance company claims adjuster to check the car out and make an estimate of repairs or possibly total the car.

My 350 was totaled back in february. I know how youre feeling right about now. Here's to hoping you have a speedy transition between repair/insurance settlement! Good luck man.

Quartermaine · 12-01-2011, 12:52 AM

Sorry to hear that. Glad you are ok. Car can be replaced.

Very sorry to hear that Pharm. What matters is that you're ok and no one was hurt. I just wish you luck with your insurance company and that they process this as quickly and as painlessly as possible.
This Z thing must be a curse. I had never been in an accident in over 2 decades of driving till I bought my Z. Its like these cars draw accidents toward them. Keep us posted on what's going on.

Sucks buddy, glad that nobody was injured. However, sorry for your loss if insurance decides to total it.

Damn... sorry to hear. I've had a car totalled before and it blows.

My Chicane Yellow just became more rare

ZForce · 12-01-2011, 01:35 AM

Glad to hear no one was injured. The car will be totaled....no doubt with that damage.
