Well, yesterday my insurance company finally agreed to total the car. They apparently use an independant appraising company to determine the value. It was also suggested that there is some negotiating room on the final payoff amount. It seems that the salvage value of the car was enough to make it more economically feasable to total it (something I have been telling them for 8 weeks). However, as the cost of repair kept increasing, I also think they were concerned that at some point it would reach the 80% mandatory threshold and they would have to pay me in addition to the body shop for work up to that point.
Now the hunt begins for my poor baby's replacement. I am thinking 2003/4 S (will be nice to have a glass rear window, glove box and a cupholder), blue with tan interior. 2005's are still a bit pricey plus I really haven't gotten used to the new side vents. If only they matched the paint color it wouldn't look so much like an MR-2.
