I fractured (compressed) my back. Spent one month in bed … Percocet … whole nine yards.
Then six month in a plastic brace. Feel like I am a bit shorter now

Wow, what'd that palm tree do to you?

Seriously though, good to hear you're recovering/recovered. Bummer about the car, but as well know, they're replacable. In your case, with a G35/Skyline

Were you going 100mph? This happened 7months ago? Car doesn't look very damaged to pop out air bags and cause all that damge to you.. at least it wasn't worst though.

Looks like a dealership to me and I don't see any other wrecked cars..

Thanks!
During my first hour in ER I was thinking that I’ll never walk again. Pain was horrible and I thought it will get worst… (because it was getting worst). Then doctor came and said that I have a good chance .

Thanks! It not "X" - just a plain sedan. Yahoo calls it "2004 Infiniti G35 Sport Sedan Leather". I'll probably detail it over the weekend, and then post some pictures.

G is different – produces more noise, more responsive, faster, and less comfortable on long trips.
I didn’t take it to the limit (yet), but at 4000 rpm it pretty much covers all my needs without ANY hesitation.

P.S. Too MUCH brake dust on the front wheels, but stops (almost) instantly.

Glad to read that you came through your accident ok. What exactly happened that caused this?

post some pics of your G35. 6spd or autotragic?

I don't take my Max to the limits, nor do I race w/it, my max will pretty much see 3000-4000 rpms, sufficient for me, but once a while I'll unwind it beyond that range depending on traffic, speed limits & the # of cops around

True, true... Same here.
I like the following conditions: Sunday night, going Miami - Tampa (I-75)

This might sound mean but its not meant to offend you in anyway or lessen anything... I'm really glad you got out with your life... but were you wearing your seat belt? The damage is bad but it doesnt look like it was enough to really bang someone around like it did to you. LIke I said I'm not trying to say anything against what your posting, I'm glad your alright.. and got a G35 out of it
