Nope, mine was... but his has damage. We had a clean bill of health for a low speed rear end caused by an idiot.

It was not my fault. Was rear ended by a dump truck. I'm going to do my best to get a total replacement. If not I can sue for depreciation.

Damn man, so sorry about that. Hurts just to look at it.

I would really push to get it totaled... Even if they fix it up like new, it will always come up on a Carfax, so you are going to take a major hit on resale.

Good luck.

Damn, looks fixable but i would not want it back.

EricTheCamaroGuy · 01-27-2016, 03:32 PM

No, it's not totaled.

Man that sucks, looks like it's fixable. Hope that you were not injured.

Indeed you can. i did this as well when my car was rear ended. the insurance company tried to fight me on it but i held my ground.

Just dont take NO for an answer.

Probably just has a messed up alignment from the hit, or the rear end is out of whack.

Sorry to hear OP, but that looks fixable for sure...

Oh yeah duh!!!

No way they total it. I think it total BS for anybody to tell you that you can make an insurance company buy you a new one either. They wouldn't even consider it on a new car where the total repair was less than 85%. After it is repaired, you tell the adjuster you would like to file for diminished value. Each company does it different. Some use their own software to come up with a % of the value, like 1.5%. Others will let you go to the dealer and get some estimates, but they rarely go off them so don't get your hopes up on that either.

Thats unfortunate! Hope everyone involved was okay. Definitely not totalled. I'd be very surprised if it was, anyway.

All the best,
