Had an Altercation Today

Congratulations Jake!!! That's great news.

I'd not worry about a buy back right now. Focus on maximizing the gross settlement. I'm betting the settlement will end up between $10,000and 11,000. Calculated salvage value will likely be between $2000-3000. Depending on state law a buy back will mean mandatory salvage title. If you can walk away with $8,000 and your car, I'd keep it and part it out (if you have room to store it...it takes months/years to fully part out most vehicles).

Good news is, looking on the market, there are cars with nearly 200k miles going for 9k... could easily get 10 or so without even fighting it, then after fighting it and adding in glass top, rental car, and having principle and teachers testify against the stress and such. In the end with all of that i could honestly see getting 11k or so market value. After that we belive we have examples of tottalled cars that will allow us to buy mine back for around 2k. Sell the top, engine, and trans. And i should turn a profit... Good news is while the boxster market seems actually pretty high up right now from when i was buying last year, the gap between a normal car and an S has went down. I could very very well find myself driving an S soon! And i will still have the left overs of me 2.5 car to continue selling or to just send off whatever is left for like 1k or so.
