Ouch.   I'm thinking $4500. 

Glad she's ok...

[Swamp_bucks]

My guess is way more then it probably should be.  But ide go with 5000.  Hope everyones ok.  

[ny hunter]

That sucks at 4000 no problem

[Robhuntandfish]

$4800.   But could be a wide range.  Have seen adjusters want to total vehicles with one door and panel dented in because the whole panel is also attached to the roof.  Which brought the repairs to 9K.  Cars are totaled so easily these days esp if you have to add in any airbags as well.  A stock radio these days is $900 cause of all the tech attached to it. Vehs are built to be thrown away instead of repaired.  Some rear view cameras will be $1000 because after one year the tech is already passed by and no one is making them.

Wait so she hit the car in front right? Then she herself was rear-ended

Correct . Insurance is going after the driver that hit her from behind, and not finding her liable  for hitting the front car, due to her and driver behind her both giving statements  that the suv abruptly cut in front of her without signaling and locked up brakes, then fled the scene .

Plus the hospitals cameras caught part of it .

This could be better then what does this buck score !

The Mrs and I don’t get in accidents ,nor our kids really ,let’s just say I was shocked .

Totaled for sure. New Car coming

[Moho81]

$8,700 total and it might get totaled out. 

[Robhuntandfish]

i am guessing those tailights are also chipped (by that i mean have a computer chip in them - lol ) So they will be expensive.

Don't steal my thunder. It was the easiest scoring guess of my career. Clear as day this car is totaled.

Why were you so shocked?  Just because you haven't gotten into accidents don't mean they can't happen no matter how safely we drive.  With all the cars on the road these days and with all the reckless drivers, either incompetent, drunk, high or texting while they're driving chances are good something might happen sooner or later.

i would say no more than $5K in damages and no way that car should get totaled.

[WNYBuckHunter]

$6k, and no way thats getting totaled. Most of the bill will be paint work.

[UpStateRedNeck]

Totaled?  Nah.  5173.45$, Drew.

[Robhuntandfish]

shouldnt be totaled - dont think insurance would go for that even if the adjuster is an  "I gotta guy".  lol

Shocked at the cost of the repairs, as we’ve not had any of our cars in a bodyshop for quite a number of years .

I m aware of mva’s and there causes as I’ve responded to, over 1,000 of them, figure if just one a week ( low number ) times 28 years , last 14 years my Truck covered parts of two expressways . I’d like to say I’ve seen it all, but they keep coming up with new ones .

ya not anywhere near totaled .

$11,599.00.... total... assuming dealer repair .... dealer parts .

[grampy]

I like nice even numbers. Therefore, my guess is Ten Thousand Dollars even! Body work/labor and parts are crazy expensive now days.

[Red]

$5,375.00

[2012_taco]

I'm going with 9K as my Toyota Tacoma was 4500 and I only had damage to the front fender,light and scratches on 1 door and rear quarter panel.

[Nomad]

8 Grand !  My thought was $4,500 or so ,but I haven’t had a car in a body shop in many years . Cameras and sensors are pricey , distance sensor was $800 , $200 to “ aim “ it, rt head lamp assembly $800,  lf head lamp assembly another  $800 , trunk lid $477 ,trunk lock assembly w/key smart $234. Sh!t the bumper covers are only $200 , it’s the sensors and electric do dads that add up . 

$100 for the letters to spell Corolla SE and an emblem lol. Hell I take them off my cars .

FWIW, local dealers are asking 14-15 k for that year ,make , model . 
 

looks like Moho 81 wins ( no,price is right rules ) .
