Glad you guys are OK. You were VERY lucky to hit where you did. A foot further up the door and your passenger probably would have been hurt.

wowww I've seen a few wrecked 370z's here even one that rolled over? and none of them had real serious injuries. I'm really impressed on how the Z holds up, considering the size of the car.
I mean when you are in a car that small like the Z, almost anything that hits you is a big impact because everything is a giant compared to the 370z. 370z ftw!! I bet I'm not the only one impressed. |

The Z is pretty solid, but with a lot of the hard impacts we've seen it all comes down to how and where you hit.
In this case they were lucky to strike the pole with one of the more solid parts of the car. If they hit right in the middle of the door there would have been serious injury for sure.

If I were to guess... south on feeder from Briarcrest to University or University to Harvey.
Have you ever thought about taking your agressions out on the track? TWS offers some very good Drivers Edge/HPDE events. I'm attending an event Nov. 13/14. Take care.... |

Yikes! Definitely looks like you hit pretty hard. Don't worry about having to pay for it. Just be glad that you and your friend are ok. It could have been much worse.
If you do decide to buy back I'm interested in the headlights as well.
