i have no idea if your car is paid off or not, but assuming it's paid off, and hte check they cut is a check to YOU and you get cash in your hand...I KNOW you can pull off your parts. I had this happen years ago..to a car with some mild mods...I sold my parts and did just what you did. i found a guy who wanted myparts. I no longer had stock parts..so he showed up with is car, and we pulled parts off his car, swapped them with my car, so that my car had all the stock parts on it when the ins co. pickedi t up - but he got to take the upgraded parts..and I got some cash out of it.
insurance company could care less if you have stock exhasut or a full fabspeed system. they are going to sell it to a scrap yard / salvage yard. no point in letting someone else scoop up all those parts.
get people who want your parts, have them come to you, assist ini the R&R, and then they also pay you for the parts.
overall, your situation s ucks..as you have a beautiful car..but given your situation, if the car is totalled...and you do NOT plan to pay to keep it..and it is going to be sold..grab yoru parts.
as others have said her..if you do want to keep the car, you CAN keep it and take the check they give you and then fix the car. the downside to that is that the car is then titled as salvage...so good luck selling it ever for anything reasonable... but if you plan to keep it forever who cares....
that decision is up to you. one way or the other, all your parts - you n eed to kep those!!!

well if you have the time... buy it back from the insurance comany as salvage and them part it out.
or buy it back, repair it your self, and have 10 k in your pocket.
you would make your money back rather quickly selling parts. The motor alone is 5k, tranny about 3. However you have to have the resorces to pull parts like engine and tranny.
otherwise, get on the phone to LA dismantlers and see what they would give you for it, may be more than the buy back from insurance.

HA! Guess what fella's the car is going to be good as new. The insurance appraised the car and took into account all the mods on the car because everything is OEM and the can CAN actually be ordered the way I have it.
My car was appraised at $26,803 by AAA!!!! Don't get me wrong I HIGHLY doubt anyone would pay that for a 2001 Boxster but this means they will fix it and the car keeps its clean title.
No more need for parts!
Thanks everyone for trying to help me out!
