    Brian, did they give you that $6500 estimate and say that's all it was going to take? I know when my truck got wrecked, there were like 3 or 4 checks that were written to me, because as they were taking stuff apart, they would find more stuff that needed replacing. I hope for your sake that they total it and you can get a new car!

    And also, if they total it and give you the option to buy it back, let me know how much they want for it 😉

      That did not include any of the stuff messed up under the hood. My wastegate is bent, intercooler leaks, intake and filter broke, electonic boost controller wires cut, fuse box broke, etc......i just told him to to include those oem things yet because they are aftermarket. If i have problems with insurance i will have them put those parts back to stock and that should be enough to total it.

        75%? that doesnt sound right. When i crashed my talon it was considered totaled because the estimate was more then the cars worth.

          ^^ IE over 75% of the cars value. If the cost to repair the vehicle is 75% or higher of the total vehicles value then they "total" the car.

                    I voted for collision experts as they have fixed my dads car (02' cadillac deville) when he had a run in with those horrable automated car washes. scratched the hole car and some how he ended up hitting a suport for the machine. also i have gone to progressive a few times i the past years. I was rear ended at 45mph in my old civic coupe and the frame was bent and the quarter panal was wavy. I was quoted a lil over $2000 from quality and went to progressive and had it fixed for $900... Brian go take a look at aj's civic and you can see there work. it's the passenger quarter panal and the bumper suport.... hopw it's totaled
