Ouch, really sorry to hear the bad news Nax. Good thing is you're ok, and at least she missed your wheel. Hope insurance will take care of it for you.

as long as you're ok its not a bad accident. car's are easier (and cheaper) to fix or replace.

that being said, given the value of your LS, and the fact that it SEEMS like the front frame is bent (may just be the bumper mounts) it's likely a total.

OUCH!!! Car was looking really nice. Sorry to say that it looks like the entire front end shifted tho. Most likely totalled. Sigh** now am convinced that there is a systematic conspiracy to take out all first gens. Yours is like the 3rd or 4th one that I have seen here in the last month or so.
