Drugs are bad for you..

 

How much did you purchase the car for? I would look on autotrader and get some quotes for 98's with stolen titles. They may take that into consideration they may not, I'm not quite sure.

 

i am reading of way too much stolen activity....

 

But I likes the green stuff....

Ya, I would like to know also. Not to hijack or get off topic but can an insurance company say, "we're not going to give you more than what you paid for." Im insured with mercury ins. and they said that to me. I got my 98 R for 13,500 but told them that I got it for 12 for reason that I cant say (pretty sure some of you know what I'm talking about) Anyway, my car then was involved in a hit and run oct. 2004 and they fixed it up and what not but then I recieved a letter saying that my car value is now 10,981 or something like that. I still owe about 8K on the car. So if it were to get stolen today and mercury gives me say, 10k. That mean 8k goes to the bank and 2k goes to me. That kinda sucks seeing how I payed 13,500 for the car. I'll be losing a good amount of cash there. Anyway, I'm going with another ins. company after my 6 months is over. Back to topic, for those that got their car wrecked or stolen, how much did you get from insurance company?

 

MOST insurance company will go by NADA book value
you can check it out how much your car is worth at

however, something like ITR is rare gem. you could argue with them and get lot more for it
here in Boston, MA.... i've seen people sell 01 PY ITR's w/ 55k+ miles anywhere between $22000~$27000.
my car has 34k on the odometer, so i'd assume i could ask for more from insurance if it were to happen to me.
also, if you've done something to your car recently, give them the reciepts and they'll pay for it.

here is my other case with 03 RSX Type-S

i bought the car for $20100.
Insurance couldn't value my car b/c it was too new and NADA requires min. of 1yr to get figure for it.
They requested my sales reciept and said they will only pay for what i've paid for.
I argued with them b/c (1. dealer probably wouldn't sell me another RSX-S for $20100, 2. car was brand new and when they claimed total, it only had 1072miles, 3. car retails for $24000 +/- $500)
so they said they'll give me $22100 for the car + tax.
but since i had lojack + factory fogs + front/side/rear lip spoilers installed i showed them reciept for those and they paid for all
than they took $500 deductable off from the total
in the end, i ended up making good amount of money

hope that helps
