Yep - that was me. On my way back from the Torrance SC to PVLooks like you got hit at Skypark and Crenshaw Blvd in Torrance.
If they offer you the salvage I would like to buy it. From the photos, it appears as if the mounting points for the right upper and lower control arms are torn off of the frame. We can repair it but they won't let you. My email is attached, if you need help with values, I am ready to do it.#303 died last week :-( :-(
On my way back from the annual service at Tesla, a driver ran a red light and T-boned me hard, pushing me into a another car in the left lane (a Model S Plaid, and hard enough to roll it over).
All drivers (myself included) walked away, fortunately, but #303 wasn’t so lucky.
Insurance is going to declare her a total loss :-( I hope someone will buy her remains and put them to good use. She has a CAC of 142, a beautiful interior, upgraded brakes, and upgraded LED headlights. I disabled the APS at the impound lot, so hopefully the battery will survive.
Thank you Carl - I’ll definitely check with them. Would be great if we can get it to you before the battery goes flat.If they offer you the salvage I would like to buy it.

So happy to hear this!All drivers (myself included) walked away, fortunately
And so happy to hear this!On the bright side we do have a lead on a successor - my wife and I agreed that we need to stay in the Roadster community

Sad to see. unfortunately, there are flooded cars like this all over down there due to Ian. I would double check history if you’re going to buy a used car from SW and central Florida.Don’t know the story (fire AND flood damage), but #651 (5YJRE1A1XA1000651) popped up three days ago on Copart in Florida: https://www.copart.com/lot/61960422/2010-tesla-roadster-fl-punta-gorda-south
Listing disappeared, but I think this is the same car. Spotted at a local event in 2016. Wonder what happened to it.View attachment 865767
