insurance is gunna say its totalled and pay you the bluebook value of the car, if you want you can buy it back then part it out, ot strip it before they take it... either way that blows sry man, what happened?

i'd say it's totalled..that's what the insurance company would say too...buy it back from them and part it out would probably be your best route

hahahah

i did the SAME exact **** just a month ago. it was raining off the 57 freeway. i was getting off Temple Ave. and its an incline ramp. I hit the e-brake...back end started sliding i thought it was awesome. this was all at 20mph.

i then noticed my back end starting drifting to the side. i attempted to compensate by letting go of the e-brake. however, it didn't do ****..so i countered with the steering wheel...and before I know it, i'm sliding sideways and event90 degrees ually went off the road into the dirt.

and thank god no guard rail, otherwise i'd **** up my front end. i had mud and **** all over my tires.

but yea scary ****, i'm never pulling a stunt in the rain again...

This reminds me of a time when I was making a left turn from a four way intersection on the way to work and it was raining, as I was turning I punched the gas on 1st gear and my back tires started drifting to the right I paniced and let go of the gas and put it in neutural and ended up sideways on the street. I was going atleast like 15-20 scary

I totalled two cars before I realized how NOT to **** around.
Im sorry this happened to your car... but it is probably a good lesson-learned.

If it were me.... I'd part it out.
Good luck.

If your going to **** around with the ebrake, go do it in an empty parking lot or some *** **** dirt road in the boonies, NOT on a freeway on-ramp you dumb *****.
