Man that sucks big time. People who under estimate the power of a fast car. Look How low the miles are.

Look at the passenger compartment--virtually untouched. It took a hell of an impact to produce that damage to the front of the car. I'm very impressed by the protection the car provided for those in the seats. Textbook example of the progress that's been made in crash protection.

I wouldn't attempt to rebuild this car but if the LS6 turns out to be OK, it could be a real bargain as a parts queen for $11K.

Damn, it's sold, my chance to own a coupe AND a Z06 is gone! :D :D
That would have looked GREAT in the driveway :jester :jester

Seriously though, I'm impressed to see how well the driver/passenger area stayed intact.

I don't think you can recoup any of that money for $11k. I doubt the engine is useable. The interior looks good, as if nobody got hurt. That's the good new. Guess what absorbed most of the impact?
You got it! The engine! :bs

Looks like it might have hit a guard rail or a wall. Look at all the wheels. They're all bent, the rear ones look tilted. :eek:

Dang! 11k - there is not much of use left! I'll give 1k and haul it away. They can even keep the "probably good, not much broken, may not be cracked" ls6 engine.

I always told the wife that our Z should never be worth less than 25k if we keep it on the road...

Those wheels would make a killer hose-reel for the garage that has everything...

best regards -
