what??? they didnt totalled this car??? I dunno bro,, this car will never feel the same afterwards... better be careful,, some bodyshops have hook-ups with the adjuster,,, they give it a very light estimate up front so the cars not totalled.. then afterwards, they order the parts you need and rip apart your car to find ALOT more damages inside and call for a supplement,, by that time it is clear that the car should have been totalled in the beginning but since they already have parts ordered and already started working on your car,, they have to continue with their project... "trust me,, I've seen my buddy do this at his bodyshop" Samething happened to a buddys brand new bmw... original shop said $13k in damage,, toweed it to another shop and it was declared total at the second shop... tell me how you jump from $13k in damage to totalling out a $44k 8 month old 328xi????
