2000SE

My 2000 SE civic has been crushed beyond repair unfortunately

I believe the insurance company will write it off
So all I want to know is what it's worth ... I know there is a standardized book that the I companies use. Is there anyway of finding it on the NET or does someone have access?

2000SE civic 140K immaculate condition
thanks for any help

I think its black book value. But I could be wrong BTW sorry about your loss.

Pictures? Front end damage? Or rear, or side? What parts of the car remain in decent shape and are reuseable?

2000SE

thanks man


no pics
front end is banged up pretty bad ... hood bumper both front quarter panels, windshield, both light assemblies, and both airbags are all toast
that's why I think they call it a write off

Buddah

yup...it's a write off.

What is its smashed up value or what was its value a tenth of a second before impact????

2000SE

before impact

I found the black book value calculator and it's worth between 5 and 6.5 g's
it really sucks because it can't be replaced for anywhere near that because of all the taxes and other admin fees

is it possible to ask for a replacement car that is similar instead off a cheque?

cibs

nope, they'll give you a cheque, they won't go find another car, that's your job...

i honestly think it's a little more than 6.5 g's... but i guess it depends on what company you're with...

i totaled my 93 DX hatch 3 years ago (so 2002) when it was 9 years old and i got 6.5 g's for it...

2000SE

that sucks
I hope you're right that I'll get more than 6.5 g's

I wrote off a 96 EX 5 Speed Sedan w/ 202000 in march and I got 5800. But i kept the car and they deducted 17%, so it ended up being 4800

cibs

damn! when i kept my car they only chargedme like 450 bucks... so i got 6050 back...

I took over 1000 in parts off of it, so it worked out to be favourable.

imported_caloge

hate to hear this sort of thing happen, but if you want to get rid of your armrest im in need

Tego

You plan on parting it out or no?

2000SE

i didn't know you could get a cheque and keep the car
that would be ideal

how did you guys work that out with the insurance company?

If I can keep it and get reasonable amount of money I will part out
it's in incredible shape with the exception of the damage caused by the crash
