    totalled :(

    Got into an accident on the highway on 270 north coming home from work on the 21st. It was stop and go traffic and i had come to a stop. A couple.of.seconds later this guy slams into my ix! His airbags deployed, and he hit me hard enough that i skidded 30 feet. Also the force of the impact broke the drivers seat and ripped the touchscreen faceplate off of my head unit. Pic of carnage..


    fortunately I only sustained neck injuries..sever neck sprain, pulled muscles and two misaligned vertebrae..but Monday it was determined that Kyra was a total loss. Also unfortunately for me, since I had liability at the time, I have to go thru this guys insurance co.pany for everything...I know she was not perfect cosmetically, but mechanically she was pretty Damn close to perfect. Today I got a call from them saying that because of prior front end damage, ( a small crack in bumper cover, and 3-4 dime size dents in the hood) they are going to take $500 off of whatever they are going to offer!!! ..which has yet to be determined..
    I just want to get fair value at this point, and get back on the road..what could I realistically expect??

          If I had to take a guestimate....$3k give or take depending on mileage/condition/insurance co.

            Agreed, $2-3k is what they will most likely offer. Still, I bet you could fight a little to get upwards of 4-5k with some work.

                      That sucks, you should hire a injury attorney and they will take care of everything with the other insurance company and get you a fair amount for your car.

                        Damn dude thats fucked..... That happened to me once too, in my Civic. If I wasn't slammed I woulda probably done some real damage to my shit, but yea i only had liability as well at the time, sooooo they fucked me as well.
                        too bad brotha, but don't give up hope.

                            Injury attorneys are not damage appraisers.
