Hey, look at it this way, now you don't have to worry about the resale value

 

: (

 

Anything salvageable? :/

 

09cobaltss, feel free to do more damage. I need about another 3-3.5K in damage to total it. With all my parts the ACV is about $20,500. Damages are at $11,600.

 

are you kidding?! that sucks, the car will never drive the same, but you already know this

 

Sucks man.

I bet you were getting your hopes up about that TBSS. My wife loves her AWD 06...

 

i woulda cut my losses earlier with the aftermarket mods then have to drive the car after knowing what happened with this

 

they total cars if the damage is more than 50% what its worth.

 

thats bullshit man

 

well hell! I got screwed with my shitty Tiburon then!!!! I did 7,000 in damage and boguht the car for 12,000 lol..


buttt.....I was pretty freakin close to my estimate, booh YAh!

 

New York state puts a cap on totaling a car, can't exceed 75% of the ACV. Allstate told me that once you're above 70%, it's most likely totaled due to the little unaccounted for problems along the way of repairing a car. So either way if they accounted for my parts (70% of $20,500 = $14,350) or didn't (70% of ~$18,000 = $12,600). Allstate had looked over the repair estimate and knocked it down to about $10K this morning, putting me even further away now.

 

**** suckks dude. i went to denoyer tonight to loook at the damage.and not sure if your aware but both your amber lights were on and your driver tail light was on. but nothing was lit up on the dash.

 

i did not know that, thanks. ill call them to let them know. Seems on par so far for what they've been doing so far.

 

Not many people have had good experiences with DeNooyer. Might I ask why you're not taking it to a standalone body shop? There are a couple really good ones in the area...

 

It is normally 70% of value.

 

yeah. i drove past and thought someone was in it but no one was. lights were just on. nothing was lit on the dash. was weirrd

 

prior to this situation, I have had nothing but good business with Denooyer. Allstate considers Denooyer a "direct repair" facility. They quarantee the work for life, and plus i figured Denooyer, with their performance oriented dealership would help me out. I'm pretty sure at this point it would come out of pocket if i moved it to a different shop.

 

i had my car fixed at Denooyer last winter. they fixed it fast and it came out great!

 

Wow.

 

starkie, how much damage? did you need an alignment? frame/unibody bent?

 

it was 5200 bucks in damage im not sure if i needed all that let me look at the estimate i have it on my computer somewhers

 

$13,718 in damage.... you weren't far off

 

Car does not have a FRAME. Unibody structure means the car IS the entire frame.
