David! didn't know you still came on this site!

and Ill keep you guys posted.

anyone know how i would go about getting a Salavage title so i can keep the Grand prix?

as it stands (Before i submit my recepits to increase value)

They want to Total it out and keep it for 5 Grand.
or i can keep it and they pay out 4 grand.

Status Update: #1

I spoke with Steve from Regal cars of Florida (Dealership owner who has the 03 LE) and he said he more then likely can go to the price we spoke about a few months back (7 grand for the 03 LE with 69K)

collecting my recepits to send to USAA so they can increase the Value (Not dollar for dollar, but a percentage)

Confirmed 7300$ out the door with Taxes and all.

so its going to be like 6600$ + taxes and stuff



When its KBBed at $9,475 and I'm getting it for 7 Grand

Good deal right? 69k miles

From April 17th:

Sure does suck...but I told you these cars weren't worth sh1t.

My 2001 F-150 was bluebooked at $4200. I am getting $8334.59 from my insurance. They valued my truck at $7500 (don't know how or why?), plus tax, and unused portion of my registration. I have AAA. I would think that your car would be worth more? I thought USAA was good. But then again, the girl who totaled my truck, was insured through daddys USAA. They are not covering my loss, my insurance is. Basically, I think that AAA will sue her dad to cover my $8300 check.
Hopefully it works out for you. You should be able to salvage title that car.

I don't understand the dilemma here?

buy a junk yard motor, rebuild it, then put it in...

$1000 total cost if you do it wrong....

USAA is saying my car is a total loss no matter what the **** i do.

their estimate on repairs is wrong in the firstplace (They claim 8 grand)

i got documentation for a new engine for 6 grand


and i can rebuild it for less then that.


Some **** about a certificate of destruction.

^That's fūcked up! I just spoke with AAA. I am going to pick up my check, and sign over my pink slip at 2:00pm.

Why did you report it at all?

If it's a COD, then the car is no longer able to be registered again, and is basically %100 parts car.

If I were you, this is what I would do:

Get the car back and take the $4,000.

Part the car out.

Save all of the money you got, and buy something else, nice and reliable.

You'll have a estimated amount of around $9,000.. + whatever you make off the parts.

You can get something nicer then a GTP for 10,000+

Think about it.

my offer still stands, u never PM'd me back.
