haha i would love to but i have NOWHERE near that much cash..

Damn. Sucks to see that kind of thing happen. Glad to see that you're okay bro. I remember when I totaled my 240. That was my baby, but insurance wouldn't let me have it back. All I needed to do was pull the frame and replace the core support, headlights, hood, and fender. But they told me there was too much damage, gave me $1500 for it, and pretty much told me to f*ck off.

I'm not ok..back and neck still sore..and yea, that's why I'm not going thru my insurance..

I was the same way after my accident. I've still got back pain and that was nearly a year ago. I wish my car didn't go through insurance.

Ummm...they cant not sell you back your cars body. They have to offer it to you, its your right.

this is not entirely true....if you owe money on the car and the bank holds the title, then the insurance company has to name the lienholder on the check and will take possession of the car. Then once the auto auction picks it up, you can try and buy it back from them. But at that point you have to put in a bid...and most auctions aren't open to the public. At least that's way it is out here in Cali.

i thought you would get a check for what the car is worth, then if you owe money on it the bank would get what you owe them then you would get the rest?

Nope. The bank is the lienholder and technically own the car until you pay it off, so they are the primary when it comes to payment from the insurance company. If you owe less then what the car is worth, then the insurance company will cut a separate check for the difference directly to you.

Well i figured he owned the car outright. Your right if a bank still owns it thats why like me and my wife have the GAP coverage, since the our cars value is less now than what we owe on it, if it gets totaled at least it gets fully paid off. Most people own these years of cars right out so i didnt know if justin has it financed or not, i figured not. Otherwise your right, it goes to auction or the crusher if its to bad.

i do own it..haha that was just my thought on the idea..
