They are busy dibbing each other out. Deposits please.

My info is that once insurance company gives you check for total loss, they have title to the wreck and they own the car. What they do with it is their problem. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

You have option to buy back but cannot re-title or register the vehicle I think..

you can pretty much always buy it back from the insurance co., but it depends on the state law whether or not you can register it to drive. CT will let you register salvage title.

Weasel will become famous soon enough
Or you can do "owner retainment" (which is what I did with my old E36) where they take full worth + tax/titling fees and subtract the average auction cost of that year/model totaled. Then cut you a check for the remaining.

With my old E36 with minor damage, just totaled by the low worth... They took the $4200 retail, added about $650 in tax and titling fees, then subtracted the average totaled E36 auction yield of $550 and cut me a check for $4300. And I kept the title, no salvage or total loss on it. Costed me about $2000 to fix it, so I came out $2300 ahead at that.

I got the vehicle back sans front bumper cover, lights, etc and it was incredibly hard to believe that the insurance company wrote this off. So I enquired a little and I am now in the process of rebuilding the vehicle myself. I appologize to everyone (very much) for advertising these parts when I am now going to be needing my own!
I will post some more pics of the vehicle tonight to show extent of damage in clear light.

BTW I am able to re-title but it will always be "REBUILT" I have to get it totally inspected and recertified for legal road use. This will not be a problem as the work will be done by professionals, not garage-type work.
