I was amazed at what repairs done right cost when an estimate was done on my first Boxster. I had in my head $3-4k, the body shop stopped at $26k. I got a check for several thousand more than I paid for it 5 months before and the insurance company knew what I paid to the penny. I took the check and bought a 2 year newer Boxster but this time an S for the insurance money. Not 6 months later someone rear ended me and the bill was what I would expect, $1400 or so. Looking back I wonder if the second body shop (dealer owned) would have saved the first car, after all there were F-cars waiting the best body shop in town's attention.
