If anyone has had a car totalled and got it back from the insurance, how did that work? Does it cost some percentage of car's value or what?

Also, what is a GSR motor and transmission worth, including all the computer and everything? that is all I would really want out of it, probably the seats too I guess, maybe put the suspension that is undamaged on the VX too.

 

I bought my GSR back after they totaled it due to theft. I got it back for $700 and I'm still driving it 5 years later.

 

can't answer the second question but as far as the first, i believe it is either a percentage or a number derived from salvage price and/or what they think they can get at auction for it. it's been a while but i don't remember what it was. in my experiences, if the car was worth 5k and they wanted, say, $1k to buy back plus maybe a $1k deductible was, they'd simply give me the car back and a check for $3k (the value minus the buy back price minus deductible). those are just example numbers.
