You should have the option to bring it to whatever repair shop you choose. Ask the dealer for an authorized shop.
If the car is a write off and you have the means, ask for a price to purchase the wreck. Typically the wreck is around 10-15% of the claim. With high end cars, you can part them out and make tens of thousands.

Just a quick update, the first repair company estimated the repair at 40K USD, the Porsche certified stopped counting at 90K USD. So the car is getting totaled unfurtantly thats one to the grave.
Currently discussing the market value and searching for cars, there is almost none for sale so might take some time.. and I have asked to by the wreck.
Thanks for some tips, moving the car to a certified dealer turned out to be a necessary thing, given that they base the repair cost on the work orders rather than old fashion car repairs.

The car is totaled and going to be scraped. the frame has been damaged due to the impact on the front tire.
Thanks, for the help, actually helped out a lot in discussions and decisions that have been made throughout the aftermath of the accident.
Quick update, the first repair shop said repairs would be around 40.000 USD, the Porsche center stopped calculating at 90.000 USD, claiming the work orders for repairs required more repairs than was visible and that only visible if you have access to the repair work orders.
Super happy I actually moved the car, but really said it's wrecked and I need to find a new car. So far the insurance company is actually keeping their word on the 125% of market value, the only trouble now is to find a car, which seems impossible at the moment here. No perfect one is available and the handful that is are poorly equipped or the wrong color.
I have asked about purchasing the wreck given the car had low milage and was in perfect condition. And we are still negotiating the market value, they have had a fair estimate but given the market now they are a bit off.

But since you get more than actual marketvalue you could move up to a gts or a 991.2 .
A GTS in ops value range

How much are they asking for it. For me this would be a no-brainer. If you can get it fixed or part it out either way you're gonna come out of this ahead.

Yes indeed, but a black car with good options on it is impossible to find. There is one, lucky me I only need one.

No way to tell if it's totaled or not just from the pics, but for future reference, if you run your Porsche off the road into something solid by your own doing and cause major damage, my suggestion is to keep your foot on the accelerator and run it into the nearest tree or barrier or wall to make sure it's good and totaled. There's just no upside to owning a Porsche that's seen major repairs IMO. If I'm in for a dime, I'm in for a dollar, and that car's gonna be toast by the time I take my foot off the gas pedal and shut the engine off.
