Help, B6 A4 totalled form the rear, should I part it out?

[Alfreddelacruz]

Car got totalled December, from the rear. Everything is good everywhere else, engine, all doors good, wheels, etc. I don't know if I should keep it, State Farm willing to pay 11k for it, or 13k if they take it. What should I do? Would it be wise to part it out to sell. Engine has 95k and it's a 3.0L Quattro. TIA!

[Charles.waite]

13k is a very good payout for a 3.0. I would remove any reversible mods, if you have any, and sell those. Then have State Farm hand you a check for 13k.

[Kwarner]

You haven't mentioned aftermarket parts, condition of parts not related to accident, if you've been doing major preventative maintenance, what kind of wheels...etc.

[Unum]

13K is mighty fine.

[fr0sty]

State Farm willing to pay 11k for it, or 13k if they take it.

If you don't mind wrenching you should be able to pull a bit more than $2k in parts off that car.

[onceover]

I'd say even if its stock you could sell off everything for far more than 2k if you have the time, patience, and a place to keep it.

edit: fr0sty beat me to it

[Alfreddelacruz]

Yeah I agree, the parts for it are in real good shape, I've babied this A4 from the beginning. It's all stock except the wheels which are 19 inch BBS btw.[IMG][/IMG]

This may sound crazy, but can this be fixed?

[vteckiller2000]

Dibs on the wheels.

[Charles.waite]

DEFINITELY cannot be fixed. And if someone said they could, I would NEVER want to ride in that car.

Thats quite the hit, what got you, a semi?

[n7plus1]

jesus, hell of a hit, glad to know youre ok.

[Rommulus]

If it were me, I'd take the 13k and wipe my hands clean of the car.

[SLOWLANE]

Glad you are okay! That is one crazy hit.

As other have said if you have the time and skills you should be able to make the difference back by selling parts.

13K is a nice check though for the car

[B6A4Dave]

13k Is a damn good offer for that car! I'd take it

[EYE4SPEED]

Pull all the goodies out of it and take the check. The insurance company will sell it at a salvage auction.

[JPC1.8t]

I would take those drivers side doors 500 shipped, just the shells. only 1500 more to make that 2k ;) lmk!!

[vteckiller2000]

Wheels plox?

[AutoUnionLov3r]

Does your front bumper cover have any plate holes? how much? I need door shells for both fronts also....

[drjonez]

I may be interested in the seats, depending on condition.

[03a4sport]

Can't complain on that State Farm deal. Sounds like they took pretty good care of you. You can probably get over $2k on parting it out, but gonna take some of your time to get rid of the parts.

P.S. If that's a platinum interior I need the arm rest.

[32_d3gr33s]

take the 11k, sell off the stuff that people are interested in, then sell the shell to a junk yard... easily get more than 2g's out of it.. if you were closer, id give you 2 grand myself for the car

[Tweak00cc]

If Platinum, I will take the glove box!!!

[drjonez]

...if you were closer, id give you 2 grand myself for the car

Agreed.

[olstyn]

Aren't those BBS wheels worth more than $2K by themselves? (Presuming you have all 4, not just the front(s)?)

[Alfreddelacruz]

Here are a couple of other pictures. Good thing my 3 boys weren't with me when this occurred. BTW, a Denali hit me while at a stop light. Though he didn't admit to it, he was likely on his cell phone prob texting or something, just not paying attention. SHeesh. And now it's ruined my beloved B6 A4.

[AutoUnionLov3r]

That Denali is barely damaged!!!

[olstyn]

Well, it does have a bit of a weight advantage over an A4. That said, the bumper looks pretty tweaked, and that passenger side headlight will never be the same. Hood's not straight anymore, either.

[AndrA4]

Is this trunk and rear bumper still available? Definitely interested in those.

NICE!

Got going pretty good on that

[EYE4SPEED]

Glad you are ok, but why were you running different front and rear wheels?

[audi_nightrider]

Probably flat tire??

If youd like to give me about a foot and a half long chunk of wiring and the connector that lead to the factory amplifier i would give you some moneys :).

PO of my car cut it out and got rid of the stock amp and spliced an aftermarket radio & amp into it. Im in the process of returning it to stock

[V8EATER]

Like a good neighbor.....

[sxman69]

Thank god your kids weren't in there when that happened. I would take the money and run before they realize what they just did.

[T0M3K]

I am interested in airbox, mine got "cracked".

Some people may be interested in a trim, looks nice.

But above all, I hope you are OK. My brother got similar accident and ended up on therapies.

[Myst420]

Damn man! Glad you're okay! Personally, I would take the 11k and the car. Look how many people are already asking for parts in just this thread alone! You can EASILY recoup $2k or more parting it out.

I'm interested on the air box and maybe a few other things
