All mechanical work and paint will be done by myself and a buddy who repairs/builds cars professionally. There won't be any bodywork apart from maybe sandable primer as all damaged panels are just...

Thanks. The more I thought about it the less I wanted to lose my Z. I can't justify replacing it with another RWD sports car now that I have a 13 month old and everything else I like is out of my...

It pays to bitch apparently. I'm getting 17k plus the car plus the 2.5k bribe to not sue the sh*t out of Progressive. I can live with that.

Resale value is now nil, so after I inspect the unibody...

I always liked the FI TT kit. The whipple draws me because it's something totally different. My weird mad scientist mechanic buddy seems to think we can make it work. I'm not as confident, but the...

Yeah that's what I found too. I'm asking for an explanation of their value assessment and I may push the issue a bit. In any case the buyback is $2566, which would be dumb not to do.
