Lights,roof dented,side quarter panel and rear trunk badly damaged..may be damage to sterring and axle too
Any idea who have been in similar wrecks how much the insurance may go up
If you have a good record without claims you might get a "Forgiven" as far as the insurance increase goes.

However if you have had claims before your rating will go to the beginning rate for 0 years without a claim. Depending on your age, risk group etc it could go up dramatically.

I know a 21 year old that went from 1600/yr to $5000/yr after he Totaled a new Mustang or they could even just drop you entirely. Lots of factors though so its impossible to guess.

I need new rears too, so I wont be driving it in the rain till I get some tread.

Glad you made it OK.

I read that Boxsters have better than average accident survivability for the occupants but are more likely than average to get into an accident in the first place.

Better take a performance driving school to learn you and your cars limits. I have my eye on a course as well since I'm new to Boxsters.
