ouch. Nobody hurt, but obviously the G took it hard. Hopefully find out today if it's totalled. Just had the 36k brake job done too.......

Dude... I'm no insurance agent but I've got to believe that it's totaled. Looks like you've got thousands of dollars in damage, plus you probably have a bent frame (which equals a total).

Good thing no one was hurt. By the look of that angle you were hit , I'd say its not your fault?

That car is totalled. There is no way they will fix that. I had an accident like that last year in my old '03. The frame is definately bent. Here is a pic of my accident. I'm glad you walked away from it. Good luck bro.

I was able to stop (or mostly stop) before the carnage behind me. There were probably 10-12 cars stopped in front of me; supposedly there were 45-50 cars involved. I'd say I was doing about 50mph.

Front end still lookin' good-check out how the water is still beading up on the hood.

Saw on the news some of the scene footage....and some footage from a junkyard.....by the looks of your photo, I'm also guessing those cars beside yours were part of the wreckage too. BTW - nice username......do you talk like a Bostonian too?

That is terrible that is one thing I don't miss about the mainland...the snow. At least you get a chance to do some new car shopping and post reviews.

+1.... Sorry to see that, but at least nobody was hurt....that's the main thing.
Yeah I'd say it's really totaled....
Now you can upgrade to an '06 or '07.
G/L with the insurance.

You know, I thought that picture was taken in a some parking lot, or junk yard until mentioned the pileup.

It must have been pretty bad for you to not only get hit that hard, but also for the car I circled to end up sitting on top of whatever its sitting on.
