Bye Bye Family.... :-( (Pic and tear heavy)
I was hoping this day would never come but sure enough it has come sooner then I ever expected...As some of you know, my Z was in an accident a few weeks ago. I got the call today and they totaled it out.... I dunno what I have planned for the future but I know a Z will be in it. Not sure when but I'll be back. For now, buying a beater car with cash and just going to enjoy the extra income. Such a sad, sad day for me though...
R.I.P. 1SlowZ And the death....(lack of damage seems surprising for 16k of damage..) The Cause........ I'll still be around....just not as much. More of a spectator.......

Sorry for your loss, but please remember that we are all "family" on this forum and share in your pain. By all means, make sure that you hang around, because, one day, you will be reunited with another Z, and the misery you are feeling now will be a distant memory.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do, and "see you around, brother".

Sad news brother.... hang in there and remember that it's just a car and hopefully no one was hurt. You'll be back in a Z again one day!

Sorry to see this, but a quick question. Is that how they towed the car, with the rear wheels on the ground?

Whether you like it or not, you can't get rid of us that easily.
You can pick your nose, you can pick your teammates, but you can't pick your family! Seriously though, man, sorry to see your Z go. Stay with us, brother, we got nothing but love for you here. Z-Car junkies like me whom plan to keep the Z as long as HUMANLY POSSIBLE will be here for a long time!

sorry chris. from the looks of it, it didn't seem too bad, but the airbags deploying and possibly bent frame made it a total loss, huh?
hope you get yourself a nice car soon. GL with your next choice. |
