Default Another Z goes down..:(

Looks like my Z is gunna be totalled.
Last Thursday @ about 5 am got a call to help a friend change her tire. On my way there i was on the highway just gettin on the exit ramp when something told me to look behind me and sure enough a car is coming easily over 80mph. By the time i saw the car it was time to get out of the way so i swerved to the left hopped a curb and drove over some huge rocks! Didnt look to where i was swerving and i regret it. Should have just take in the hit and maybe the car would be ok. Damages are..all 4 wheels n tires are blown and bent from the curb and rocks. Everything underneath looks like it was chewed by a shark and some damage to the front bumper. Next day i cried for about a good hour over my girl Zena! This is tough guys. would post pics but i cant find the cable for the computer to upload

That sucks dude!

Probably better off if it's totaled, this way you can pick out Zena II.

Honestly I don't care about the z in this point. The only thing that is important is your safety and thank God you're alive. Hope everything turns to a better side brother!
