The car opened up like a can of tuna.
I don't think it's fixable.

All i could think was holy ****...man, that thing got crushed. I don't really see how 'fixable' it is, considering where the trunk is and that the back bumper might as well be the backseat.

Look at the last pic. The car is idling and there is gas in the tank. Look at the dash light. It says the trunk is open.. The trunk is open? No.... No way.. no...

Fenders, trunk lid, spare tire well, trunk floor piece, rear deck, rear window, rear doors, rear roof, and some suspension.. it's fixable, just not so reasonable. engine itself and interior is near perfect.

HAHA

Looks like the car did a good job of absorbing the impact. Nissan seems to have designed it to take an impact in one point and spread the shock throughout as much area as possible. Good design and probably helped save at least one life.

You could get 9k parting it out easily. Headlights, painted front bumper, hood, fender, 3 doors, entire interior, airbags, stereo, rims, engine, tranny, etc.

One thing you must realize though, it takes up a LOT of room...not much room left for mods

Has anyone on the .Org attempted to turbo or supercharge the 3.5L? I mean, yeah, we've seen 5th Gen's turbo'd and super'd but what about the 3.5L...

actually that car IS fixable, nothing is impossible. if you spend about 10 thousand or less on that car. you can drive it for about $15000 total. you save $15000 as well and drive a 30g car for half.
