they lose value quickly 
Like Pete said, not with a brand new factory motor, trans, steering rack, 55k on the clock and in damn near perfect shape. This was the bummer of it. They estimated worth at 9100, the original estimate for the damage was 8500 roughly. So they tell me she'll get all fixed and re-painted. Then they lift it up and give it a real look, and found another 4k in damage. Damn near every suspension part you can name was trashed. So basisially it was screwed, then all good again, then really screwed. So..totaled. And it wasn't a damn S4 Pete.

Not necessarily. This is how my insurance comp. determines it...
Example
The cost of repairing the vehicle is $8,000.
The actual cash value of your vehicle is $10,000.
The estimated salvage value is $3,000.
In this example, insurance would consider your vehicle a write off. This is because it would cost more to fix your vehicle ($8,000) than to pay you the actual cash value ($10,000) and recover some of the costs by selling it as salvage ($3,000).
IMHO, I think 13000 est. is over priced. I'd go to a different claim centre. My damage a month ago was $3200 (2500usd) and that needed a new fender, mirror and door, repaired door and both bumpers, alignment, 2 refinished wheels plus paint and windshield. Buy it back from em and you part it

Did the grilles T-red too. Thought it would flow and blend a bit better. Subtle is my taste I guess. I'll probably do the same thing to the next one. Thanks for the props guys, actually made me feel good about her for the first time since the death.
