Crappy Seven Day Stretch for Three Nice SC300
Wow, this has been a really crappy seven day stretch for three very nice, very custom SC300's , including yours, 5spdSC300's https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=208483 and my drastically improved SC300 2jzgte.
You may still have a chance, don't freak yet. If you get near a total and don't want that to happen, you are going to have to offer to do somethings yourself to keep it just under a total and the title clean, (sourse a rear lens, replace your mangled amp,cd on your own, those will bring down the costs to the insurer.
My SC300 got wacked last weekend by a Mustang swerving to avoid another car, he hit me at ~65+ mph and his car was totaled and hauled away on a flatbed, I drove home. The witness driving behind me said I swerved just enough to prevent a catastrophic head on collision, he saw a bright flash of light at impact and he got pelted with flying debree0. The Mustang's aluminum wheel came apart after hitting mine and the side of his car was much worse than mine.
Pix attached. I can tell you the rear qrt panel costs about $900 plus paint. My estimate is $6250, not totalled, this includes new door and rear quarter, repaint rear lid, repaint undamaged front qrtr, paint faded to match, clear coated. It should be fixed and better than before in ten days.
