Talking to insurance, they'll sell me the car for $3k. I'll probably walk away, but it almost seems too good to pass up if someone wants to turn it into a track car.
For $3K I would buy it back it just for parts. Insurance has to be cautious since they could lose their shirt by making the wrong call.

That would be his price not the general public. They will auction it off. Could go for that or much more (or less I guess since it is an auction). Oh, and who knows how much the repair would cost in the end. Could be $10K for all we know.
