Lets be rigorous here. You clearly DON'T know that the car can be reparied "back to normal." That is the question you asked US to start this thread. If you knew the answer, why did you ask us?

Secondly, the insurance company is not interested in whether the car can be fixed as much as what the most cost effective route is FOR THEM. If they believe the better deal for them is to pay you off and sell the car for salvage, that is where they are headed.

Based on the insurance contract you have with them, my bet is that they have that right.

I get that you would like your car fixed but it appears that boat has sailed.

As someone who has seen Porsches with body/frame damage that has been "fixed", I can tell you I would not want one.

Good luck, buy another!
