Click to expand...

Well ...just to let you know....no way in HELL is it totalled....I bet you have a bent Tie rod end which is less than $100 from the dealer plus alignment,plus maybe a new bumper and paint,wheel and tire....I would say right at 1700 MAX...Not to dash your hopes but the only way that is totalled is if there was signifigant frame damege which could not be repaired....and there is not,I can see that from the photos....A little worse,you might,just might have a bent control arm and strut to boot on top of all of that which would add about $350-400 to the total.
Unless your P5 is only valued at apprx. $4500 then you still own it free and clear....well you and the bank if its financed.:'(

Well, i did something similar at about 75 MPH with my msp. I managed to do about 3,800 dollars in damage. Control arm, sideskirt, doorskin, rearview, 2 wheels. Etc.... You need to do a lot more than that to total it. I made it over the curb and through a reflector.
