Oh Man - I'm really sorry to see this - I was really looking forward to seeing this car in person when you came to Orlando too :(
Like everybody else has said though, the main thing is that you are OK Cars can be replaced

Bad...bad deal. Glad you are OK. The car looks pretty sad.
My house is on a blacktop road in a fairly rural area. There is a stop sign about a mile from the "turn-off" into my driveway. I used to run out to 90-100 mph on that that stretch. Then one morning on way to work I saw a dead deer in the ditch at about the 1/2 mile mark of that road. I have never seen any live deer in that stretch of road, but the dead one caused me to rethink how I approach my run to the house. |

Sucks to see the car like that but it's a relief to hear that you were able to walk away unharmed. Can't wait to hear what your next vehicle purchase will be.

I have survived a couple of total losses myself. Take it easy for a while because those airbags can really beat the crap out of you without leaving a mark. Sorry about your car but, now is a great time to upgrade if the Z28, ZR1 or C7 are of interest to you. Don't know if you are in a rental or have other transportation but unless you just have to have a car asap I would take my time. I have got cars that I was not happy with when I just needed to buy something quick.

Kkreme glad you're ok. The wreck pic looks bad, and I'm sure rolling the car wasn't fun. That's what aumsement park rides are for. A black on black C7 will be a killer ride and be about the same price as your ZL1.

Memories of that car will be all the sweeter now that it's gone. Car did its job protecting you from injury. Turn the page and move on. Black C7 Z51 would be an awesome replacement..

Sorry. I have killed my share of vehicles with deer as well. I totaled a brand new 91 chevy truck (in 91 obviously) that still had the happy tags on it. Anyway if you want another red 13 zl1 the local chevy dealer here just got one. Tyrell Chevy. That's where I bought mine.
