At first glance, it doesn't appear to be too bad. Rear bumper, reverse lights, license plate, license plate frame and exhaust tips are the easy items to identify. My car was pushed about 2-3 ft with the brakes on, so I am worried about flat spots in the brand new Michelin PSS. Beyond that, who knows.
I won't post any pics until the whole thing is resolved.
As most of you know... Diminished Value is a REAL threat to a wrecked car like this. I don't want to screw anyone, but I don't want to get screwed by an insurance company. It certainly isn't my fault that the insurance company's insured driver negligently ran into me, hurting my property.
I wouldn't and I would bet that MANY, if not all of you, would not buy a vehicle with a Car Fax wreck history, You just never know the extent of the damage. I have passed on many cars over the years, solely due to the accident, even if it were documented and the minor AND a great buy.
I am sure the car is fine, BUT, it isn't what I bought and it isn't what I owned prior to the accident. I just want to be compensated for what it was worth before the accident and what it is worth now. I still lose, because I can't replace it for what it was worth before the accident. But at least it takes the majority of the sting away.
I will keep everyone updated as it progresses.
FYI, there will be a 2013 SG M6 coupe with 4500 miles for sale soon
It will have fully documented pics of the repairs.
