That really sucks but there's no way that it's going to be considered totaled. Probably $5,000 - $10,000 worth of damage considering it's new but the insurance isn't about to write a $30,000 check for that minimal (trust me, I wouldn't think it was minimal either if it was mine) damage. You're correct that you don't have a say in if the insurance decides if it's totaled. If so, we'd all demand new cars for every fender bender. The worst thing is that it will never be the same. They never are after they get damaged. :(
