Doesn't look like it will be totaled, maybe quite some time in the shop repairing her though.
Also, . Glad you're alright. |

any time airbags go off, it's bad. i think it *could* be totaled, but really need to know how the suspension ends up being.

From the outside it looks repairable, but you never know till the body shop beings disassembly and inspection. So, I vote for "unclear."
I'd at least get an insurance-funded appraisal and let them make the call. If it's repairable, go for it. It doesn't LOOK too bad. Airbags most likely deployed b/c the impacts were directly on the corners (right where the sensors are).

I was pretty surprised to see the airbag. It really didn't feel like I hit that hard. But my head did impact it so, good thing it did deploy. Poor car, though, I loved that thing to death. Classic case of oversteer fail, gg

Bummer man!
Looks like it could have been worse and the fact that you walked away from it fairly unharmed is good news. Cars can be fixed. Your ego will mend in time. Hope you get her back soon!

Those forces can be deceptive in their magnitude vs. felt magnitude.

Airbags are expensive to replace. Depending on the fair market value of the brz, they might just say it's totalled. But the car is definitely salvageable.

Worse then my rear end that was 12k in repairs (NO EXPENSES SKIPPED 100% RESTORE INSIDE AND OUT) that's a total loss dude.
To give you a hint the steering wheel + airbag alone is $1000.
