My brand new Porsche (3 weeks old) was in an accident unfortunately. I am trying to see if this is worth repairing or it will be a total loss. I am still waiting to hear from the insurance.
Can anyone estimate how much would it cost to fix it. I am a new Porsche owner, so I have no idea.

I usually say it's too hard to tell just from pictures but I'm pretty confident this one is done for. Even though that's a base, costs of collision repair isn't going to be much different if it were a GTS.
That's a serious whack. Good to hear you are ok. But that is a massive hit and even if you can source parts (a problem these days) it will be very very expensive.
Sorry for your loss. Back to the configurator I say!
Thanks for all your replies. I am okay, mostly some burns on my right hand from the airbag deployment. Is there a website I can see how much would it cost to replace these parts? I can see that radiator, hood, right headlight and bumper needs to be replaced along with other things.
IMO the best way to determine the repair options is to discover what shop is used by the dealership, then ask them to provide a repair quotation.
There will be a very long list of very expensive parts, that all add up to lots of money, just for the parts.
There are LOTS of other charges.
Let the experts do their job.
In Florida a vehicle is considered totaled when the repair cost hit 80% of the value. Zero ability to dispute. Other states will have different criteria.
Did you hit a tree? Anyway that beast is a goner. I was thinking just replace front subframe and all ie weld this and that but I think main cockpit frame is compromised too. As someone stated north of 40k is imo way more than that ie 57k.

It's already been said, but there are a lot of parts under the body panels which are destroyed. I think you will be surprised by the list. It's possible there is significant frame damage which would mean it's not repairable. I know waiting sucks but you just have to wait until the body shop inspects it.
