long story short, I let my friend drive my gtr, he was trying to beat cars making a left out of a parking lot, wheels spun couldn’t get control of it and hit a pole. Now I’m worried my car might be totaled.

Won’t be able to tell from body pics. Take it to a reputable repair shop for a full inspection and estimate - it’s what you can’t see that will determine if it’s totaled or not.

friend was shooken up and forgot to take close up pictures, seems that the radiator was pushed in, front bumper and hood is obviously done for and theres some leak on the bottom, guessing coolant.
Are you still friends?

Get an estimate and have your friend cut you a check for the repairs.

Yeah, just waiting for the insurance adjuster to come inspect the damages, hopefully not severe frame damage.
That sucks.. God Speed on the repairs...Welcome to the Forum
Doesn’t look totaled. Front support bolts on so that’s easy. Would love to buy it from you if u don’t want to fix it.

Initial thoughts are it very well could be but hard to tell, since it's a CBA and these cars aren't exactly cheap to fix...

Is the driver’s door crumpled or is that just shadow?
It’s too hard to tell from these pictures but it doesn’t look super promising.
Just guessing based on the pictures and if the other side is the same as the driver side, I would say not totaled.

Just shadow. Looks about just the front end.

Hopefully everyone is okay. Good luck and hopefully it isn't totaled. Nothing new to add to the comments above, just hoping all are safe.

If it’s anywhere near close to being totaled, I would push very hard to get cashed out considering diminished value related to having a vehicle with a “history.”
Pretty sure any impact hard enough to break the pole would cause a good amount of damage. Did the airbags go off? As soon as they add up all the front pieces with both intercoolers, radiator, core support, both fenders, hood, bumper cover, headlights and more plus all assciated labor and paint work, it's a total loss. Buy it back cheap and fix it and pocket leftover insurance money.

That might be the choice. My friend owns a collision center so idk if I’m able to have them estimate just enough so it wouldn’t be deemed total as opposed to the insurance adjuster claiming it’s totaled.
