Possible Total loss. Need opinions

The car was deemed total loss. The chassis is tweaked pretty good, enough to move the RH door support(door is out of alignment). The strut bar is buckled.

I guess my "yer not from 'round 'ere, aintchya..." is showing. Haha!

I grew up abroad, and pretty much the rest of the planet pronounces "Z" as 'zed' versus 'zee', so I occasionally slip up.

I got my replacement 370z sport. Pretty much the same as I had before but with the mudflaps and light up sill plates.

Side note: damages were 28k in repairs quoted by the body shop.

Glad she is ok. Glad you got gap insurance....lots of people forget / don't.
Looks like a loss and if it isn't you sure should push for one.

GAP insurance saved my butt. After the insurance company didn't want to pay for this and that to the tune of 4k I would have lost my butt. It took 3 months but it did get payed off. 2 car notes a month is for crap when you don't have the other one anymore.
