Wow, glad you're okay, sorry for your loss. Sidebar,is it just me? The Camaro's headlights without the grille kind of remind me of Terminator when we first discovered their was a red-eyed robot inside of him, LOL... but there is a beast behind the Camaro's mask too!

Car is not a total loss, however, it does qualify for diminished value as long as the state where the accident occured allows for diminished value. Too little knowledge about something is dangerous, I would suggest a little research into the subject matter. Oh, and I almost forgot, civil court is the only way if you decide to sue, the only other option is criminal court and we may think the other driver participated in criminal activity for trashing an awesome car, unless he/she was drunk, on drugs or involved in some other illegal activity, it would never go there anyway. Stupid is not a criminal activity in this case. Last edited by DarrenJ; 02-18-2010 at 11:12 AM. |

Iphone must of be upside down sorry. The latest is that progressive has ordered the body shop to tear down the whole front end. They will be doing a piece by piece estimate. They also stated they will send the engine to GM and have the top end taken off and checked for any damage or foreign material. Then they will decide if they will total it. Sucks too because monday they said totaled strip aftermarket parts off and they would be getting with me soon. So I did and sold many parts cheap and now they are acting like its a maybe on rebuilding.

As an multy line insurance adjuster for many years I can say it's normal for an insurance company to "open Up" you car for an internal inspection. Your car is a "Constructive total loss". It's NOT normal for them to "send your engine to G.M." for an inspection and I doubt that can be done. I also worked for Progressive for 6 months before walking out the door- They usually hire novices as adjusters/appraisers and very few know what they are doing. In my opinion your car should be totalled. I hope your in Progressive's rental car all this time and I agree don't forget the diminished value promise &/or threat.
Good luck !.

Sorry to hear that your car is destroyed. I am happy to hear that you survived. Accidents are never fun. I was hoping to see you again at C5Fest. Will you be replacing your car with another Camaro?

There is no sending anything to GM. It's more like, they call the dealership and say - hey, check out the motor, does it still run OK? |

1) Never wave people out into traffic. 2) Never, EVER trust some dimwit waving you on. 3) If you have to cross lanes through traffic that is stopped, you should just make a right turn and go with the flow instead. Drive down the road a block or two and turn around in a parking lot. Should be common sense... oh well. Those who do 1 & 2 deserve to have their licenses revoked. What makes me so mad is the dolt who waved the car out into traffic was equally responsible yet they never seem to be made to share in the misery of the situation they helped create. (Grrr, my apologies... pet peeve.)

What is the law in Ga. defining a totaled auto. In Texas is must be totaled with 75% of its current value. What is the value before the accident? What is the value of the the known body damage. Get good pictures, have your expert write up appraisal too.
Talk to the company that installed the engine mod and what has the motor sucked up. get samples, high defination pictures, and get their report in writing. Contact the mfg of the supercharger they are experts in their business. Have them write you letter about the supercharger damage and the know damage to the car motor. You should be able to get thousands of dollars with the hidden engine damage. Do you have a Ga. State insurance board. I bet you do.....Insurance companies don't like to be reported to State boards. Send copies of all paperwork pictures and list any delays in lack of use of this car. Show indecision on the insurance co. Show your expensives. They have to put you back in the same shape you were before the accident.
