Glad you are OK. A little bit of luck and a lot of Engineering. Anyone else notice the car did exactly what Honda designed it to do in a frontal accident? Almost no cabin intrusion from what I can tell.You should find out the salvage value of the car from your insurance company. The engine is probably fine and everyone here is acutely aware of what it costs to replace a short block.

I wrote off my previous black s2k in a similar but more serious impact. That is into a very sharp building corner. It literally cut the car down the middle. I walked away with a cracked sternum. The safety of this car is very impressive.
Looking at your pics I guess it's pretty safe to call it a write off.
If you think about it, add up the replacement cost for the following:
radiator
bonnet
side panels
transmission
HID lights
bumper
tires
wheels?
suspension components
airbox
engine? it could be cracked mine was
airbags
many other bits and pieces
total cost = lots of money
