i agree with above. i'd be shocked in the white one was a write-off, but not surprised if the blue one was with airbag deployment. insurance doesn't normally want to deal with the maintained liability of a vehicle that sustained an impact hard enough to deploy the airbags.

and as i usually do, a reminder that 'clean' isn't always clean:

it really always comes down to the quality of the repair. over the last couple years, i've come to understand the insurance 'game' and branded titles a lot better, and in some ways, would prefer to buy a properly rebuilt vehicle than a 'clean carfax' vehicle that was damaged and poorly repaired.
