What if it was the flagman standing there instead of the back of your car... manslaughter anyone? I'm pissed off for you, good luck

I'd want a new car too but that's not the way it works in "insurance land."
We unfortunately don't get to choose if we get a new car or it gets repaired. No way they'll give a new car if it's not totaled, and from looking at the pics, it's not totaled. Giving the fact that it's a new car design and replacement parts probably aren't readily available, it'll probably be 5-10k work of damage but there's no way the insurance will feel bad for the driver and cut a 30k check just because it's a new Camaro.
