well, what you should have done was called the cops to file a hit and run on the scene. if you didnt do that, its likely your insurance company wont pay you a dime for it. assuming your insurance with reimburse you for this, your car with 120k (assuming) in good condition is worth $2175 (you dont decide what its worth when its written off, they do). the damage work including new door skin, handle and moulding, rear quarter panel, paint blending, will come out to about $2100-2500. therefore your car is totalled. you can either repair the damage out of pocket, or expect to get around $700 for selling the car with that damage. im dealing with the same thing right now, and fixing just the door is $1600 at the least. no quarter panel or window. luckily i know who hit me and they're cutting a check.

^^^^^Agree. I couldn't say it better.

And for you "1st Civic" It must suck where you live because if you where here in California the police would still make a report.

WTF?!? My car was in a hit and run on sunday too... SGI is going through soo many cases atm, so I can't get in for another week. (I'm assuming you're canadian) I think it's wierd for the price difference of canadian cars and american cars. Insurance up here isn't as bad as in the states, because no matter what happens to my car, wether it's my fault or not, my car is covered.


Don't you just love canadian insurance companies? (sometimes)

The question is not how much you want for your car....the question is how much the insurance company is going to pay for your car.
