I thought, after the accident, that $5-6k would fix it up. But the frame damage made that figure start climbing...and up and up it went the more they investigated.
So I'd ask why they totaled it (now it gets a salvage title even if repaired correctly) and if they put it on a frame machine. If they did, stop and sell it for parts. If they didn't, then perhaps it is worth while to have someone who has the required Porsche "jigs" to measure it and give you an estimate of what they can do to repair/straighten the frame. This is not a job for amateurs. Then figure out, once you have paid to straighten the frame, how much more you'd have to spend before it would make sense just to buy another example of the '99s.
Good luck.
