Altima is better than the Versa I had to drive when I was waiting 3 weeks for the steering lock mechanism to show up.

Haha that's what the insurance rental got me while my Z is in the shop. A 2011 brown CUBE.
I hate it more than I can possibly tell you.

Edit: Seriously, it's a cube.

I know how you feel man! My 350Z was totaled last year on the 4th. It looks like your suspension was damaged pretty badly. So no matter how good the repair job is, it will never handle as good as it use to. I wish you luck with getting everything sorted out. You will look at this a year from now and it think of it as just a speed bump.

Im sorry to hear about this, just went from an Altima to a Z and I know EXACTLY what youre talking about.

I actually drove the Altima for a road trip this past weekend and I cant even begin to tell you how horrible it was going up hill (3 passengers+full trunk).

Get your Z back ASAP!
