Thread: Need help fast!!

My car got rear ended... other peoples insurance company totaled the car... ok i was pissed but then said i'll just buy the car back and take my parts off.... insurance says they can't sell me my car back....WTF!! i'm heated please someone help, i feel like i'm being screwed with, is there anything i can do???

Usually u can buy it bac, wats the reason they saying no?

you have everyright to be pissed just be thankful they had insurance .

you can buy it back they just deduct it out of the cost they are going to pay you for your car. Are you doing everything through their insurance company or yours?

^^^what he said. thats what i did when my b15 was hit.

the guy keep saying something about some florida statute that won't let insurance companies sell back the car to owner if it's over a certain salvage value.... i talk to my lawyer and some guy who owns a shop....lawyer says it's my car and i can tell them i want my car back plus whatever the cost it was going to be to fix it.... basically saying it's my choice.... other guy says i can take all my parts i put on the car and as long as they have a rolling chassis there is no issue.... i might throw my old motor back in and take all my shit out if they are not willing to work with me

very true

yes i am doing everything through their insurance

Sucks bro!!!!

That sounds like crap i never heard of some fl statue saying that. My little sister got her car t boned 95 accord totaled out by the person who hit her insurances company. anyways they told her the damage was valued more then the worth of the car . the gave her 2000 for her car but she wanted to keep it so the let her keep the car and gave her 1700 instead. what i dont get is why they wont let you keep the car and just reduce the total amount they're giving you because all they're gonna do is auction it off anyways something just doesnt sound right to me about this whole situation but if they wont let you keep it, your mechanic is right as long as the car has a motor interior and wheels your good so if i was you i get some junk motor to throw in there and take everything of value. you could probably part out the rest of the stuff and add the money with the insurance money and get you another b15
