They're scrapping my GSR...

[Cripton805]

If anyone has noticed my activity on my build thread has been inactive pretty much for the last couple of weeks. Someone backed into my car and f***ed up the fender, bumper, and minor things.
(WHILE I WAS PARKED!)

Now the insurance company has chosen to SALVAGE my car and claim it as a total loss.
CAN I PROVE THAT MY CAR IS WORTH 4K IN MARKET VALUE?
I pretty much know they're going to try to give me 2k-2.5k, but we all know and I know I could have got twice that for a clean title good condition GSR.

Someone HIT MY f***ING CAR AGAIN!!! HIT AND RUN THIS TIME WHILE PARKED AT JACK IN THE CRACK. Called the cops and video tapes show the rest of the lot except where my car was hit. FMFL :evil:
No witnesses.

They're fucking retarded. Buy it back from them

 

[Teggy64]

buy it back and restore it. The damage doesn't look too bad.... I'm suprised they totaled that. I f'ed up my car way worse in my accident and they just cut me a check for the damage.

 

[Cripton805]

They're f***ing retarded. Buy it back from them

Oh Yeah! For sure!
I can't beleive they hit my car AGAIN while I was still waiting for insurance to settle.

The thing that pisses me off is the salvage title. They're going to want to give me SHIT for it when GSR's even RS's don't even go for that price.

thats probably why they are totalling it

Insurance doesn't know they hit it again. I'm not going to claim that

You need to get some comparables to show them; that's a big part of my job is basically fighting low appraisals by finding comparables

Lucky for me I'm a well known member of ClubIntegra and I just happen to know that GSR's go for twice as much as the KBB.

 

[OGstackadoIIa]

I paid 5k

 

[Cripton805]

I paid 5k

I paid 4k :shock:
And did 1.5k in parts and maintenance.

 

[OGstackadoIIa]

Maintenance is a wash, but parts with receipts may have some kind of depreciated value

oh. I know
Still had to come out of somewhere.

Ok question: Can he (or anyone) get a lawyer to fight this case or is he pretty much screwed??????

edit: i mean to fight against the insurance trying to label your car as totaled. is their anyway to prove that its not totaled?
