Total Loss you think?
So, this afternoon, someone with an old car didn't see his stop sign..and that's what resulted..
Fortunately,we were four and no physical damages. So, do you think it will be declared a total loss? Won't find another Indy 200 Pace car special edition :'(

Sorry to hear that man
I am glad your safe and the worst part is not knowing if the car is a write off or not General rule of thumb is once airbags are deployed its generally written off but I have seen members here argue otherwise Actual visual damage doesn't seem too bad but not sure if there are structural comprises One thing for sure is that car must've hit you hard I got sides wiped HARD and my air bags never went off which I was so great full for. I truly hope that it's not written off but from experience and what I have seen I would say it's unfortunately going to be written off. It could be worse so I am glad you are okay. You could always buy it back from them depending on price It may not even be written off Fingers crossed

Probably since the airbags deployed. Depends what your insurance company values it at, since there were only 200 Indy 500 cars.

Not even close to a lose. You'll keep your car and it'll be good as new when you get it back. Sorry for what has happend. I went through a similar scene.

If they do total it, ask how much to buy it back. Looks quite repairable to me and probably worth it being a special edition.

Glad no one was hurt, I've had a few cars hit too, only one was a write off, yours really looks repairable, good luck!

it's all about the car's value and cost of repairs.
kinda surprised the side airbag went off... the brunt of the impact must have been at the wheel. |

Ha! That was my first head-scrather, but no.... I don't see a total loss unless the frame suffered significant damage. Even then -
