Sucks man... given that it is an 03. It is probably totalled. I think the recent article stated that after 5 years the Town Car retains 18% of it's MSRP which means .18x50k= 9k. There is easily 6-7 damage there.
CTS-V is a good car. I don't really like the way it looks, but it has the C5 Z06 engine .
Just watch the rear diff. I hear it is the weakest point in the car.
Wow that estimate is "cheap" compared to what it would be here. Our body labor is $170 an hour... $13120 just for that wow...
Hmm well I stated... 9k Looks like I wasn't that far off. But they should pay for for "sales tax" and other junk too and subtract your deductible.
How many miles on yours?

Unfortuneatly, it is not the insurance companies fault if you (just speaking generally here) got a terrible loan with high interest, of if you bought a vehicle that just tanked in value after you bought it....
Being a claims adjuster in the insurance world...I had a feeling they would offer you something in the $9k range, and was interested in how that would flesh out.
Unfortuneatly, collision coverage insures you for the 'fair market' value of your vehicle...and we all know how well TC's hold their value!
You're lucky that it would pay off the loan. I've seen many situations where the fair market value is significantly less than the balance on the loan (thousands of dollars), and the vehicle owners simply have no choice. They are left with the balance on the loan and a totalled car. (I saw this with an '03 Malibu, and an '02 Grand Prix - did somebody say GM?)
It sucks to start car shopping when you already have a another couple years of payments....

I'm about $4k-$5k upside down on my Navigator, so I added loan/lease payoff coverage. Cost me an extra $70 / 6 months, I think it was.
