From what we've (Opie really since he knows that guys at said shop) gathered through a shop that set it up for track use, it hit a deer. The hood being taco'd up and it sitting in a copart lot in Georgia for 2+ months likely has a lot to do with the engine bay being dirty. The interior is clean minus the soda that flew everywhere in the accident (sticky, no evidence of water damage/etc though. Soda cup included for free!). Trunk is clean. Tires have that Georgia clay on them of course. Wheels themselves are pretty clean though, some brake dust.

All the metal damage is above the crash bar. I haven't pulled the bumper cover yet but the bumper foam, bumper itself, etc look perfect.

Given that, a deer makes sense.

@Tcoat, I think it was totalled because of the airbag. Insurance companies replace it all, I'll replace what's bad, fix/reset (well have someone else do it) what can be repaired/reset.

The key for me is that the frame rails, including the extensions for the bumper, look completely straight.
