Ouch. Most likely will be totaled. Actually, I'm 99.9% sure it will.

Will be up for sale on a salvage auction website.

I'm not an insurance adjuster, but I would guess that would be totaled.

Not worth fixing. Don't think it would be even if you got the car for free. Would be impossible to resell with a salvage title too.

Worth more being hacked up for parts.

Likely totaled, and even if it is not I would not want it back after being fixed. If the adjuster argues with you about totaling then argue right back. That car will never be right if they try to fix it. However I am close to 100% sure it will be totaled.

Can't tell from pictures, did the air bags blow? They should have. This impacts "total and salvage", since they are very expensive.

If frame damage, it quickly becomes a total loss. Maybe you get lucky, and just needs a new front tub/clip and no frame damage.

Would make a fun track toy project.

thats what it basically needs, a new portion of the front of the tub.

I'm interested in the wheels if they're not damaged. Is this a .1 or .2 ?

Don't know. We don't even have damage extent, year, model, mileage, VIN #, etc ...

Some other guys that follow these sort of listings will know better than me.

Salvage price?? $20-$30K?

Surprised the headlights did not break. Whatever it hit, it was real low, or the 911 was under extreme braking, and the nose submarined down.
