YES, make sure to get compensated for the loss in resale value. The insurance company will most likely tell you that they don't compensate for loss in resale value, it's their standard line.. trust me, they will if you make a big enough deal over it. talk with your Porsche dealer to calculate fair value. I took a bad hit in my BMW Z3 roadster back in 1998 and I had to fight the insurance carrier over the resale value but in the end they paid me $2000 for the value, which I used to trade the car for a newer model. good luck!
