so sad -kiss it good buy ? what you think: how much something like this to repair ? its my full loaded LS460L 2008 runs fine just the back end looks like a mess and one of rear wheels almost touching the wheel well.

I would say its certainly totaled. Bummer! At least you're okay.

damn that sucks, glad your okay at least. It looks totaled but I'm not an expert

Sorry to see that. My GS430 got rear ended by a lady doing about 30-40mph who never braked and it did not look anywhere near that bad and was totaled which really disappointed me. Glad you are okay, that looks to be at least 15K in damage and likely frame damage.

It is a total loss as the repair cost will FAR exceed its repaired value. Be sure to also get sales tax when you settle with the party responsible or insurance company.

car is beyond repair,

how did you do with the accident, seems like it was a strong impact.

hope your well

Sad to see but looks like you still drove it home. Incredible. Hope you're alright.

Can it be repaired? Sure! Will it be repaired? Most likely.... Is it totaled as far as you’re concerned? Yup! Some body shop will pick it up at Copart or other salvage auction and most likely slap an entire rear end on it. Good as new 😁.

mikesrx350

not good as new
significant issues and will never be the same, the car looks like it was hit at 50 mph plus

Were you in the car when it was hit? If so, I hope you immediately went to the hospital. Even if you "think" you're ok, an impact like that can leave lasting injury.

The car is without a doubt a total loss.

LS430FL

With the recent falling values of LS460s I would say it is totaled for sure. That repair easily exceeds the value of an 08 LS460 at this point.

Holy smokes and yikes!! Sorry to hear, OP, and hope you're not suffering any injuries. That looks pretty bad.

Glad that you seem to be fine. That's a sad sight too see.

That's horrible! So sorry! Like others have said; it can be fixed, but not for less than the value of the car; so it's totaled. Get the most you can out of the settlement and start searching for another one.

It's amazing what they can do though; my 2001 Acura TL looked a lot like that after getting rear-ended and after the body shop was done it looked and drove like a new car. Heck I drove it for 15 more years!

Hope you have a good lawyer if you're hurt even slightly. Don't let them get away with this.
