Not to take away from the situation, but a few months ago we had an incident here in east Tennessee where a trucker fell asleep behind the wheel. He plowed into a THP tropper car... HARD!, which immediately caught on fire, erupting bullets in the trunk and everything. A fellow motorist saw the scene and pulled him out of the burning car, thus saving his life, but he has been battling an uphill battle to get better ever since. Horrible situation! Things could have been a LOT worse. Glad you are okay, but things could have been a whole lot worse! The good Lord watches over us.

thanks for the replies. It def coulda been worse. I hope that trooper makes a full recovery.
I dropped the car off at the shop today, they have to get in touch with Saleen to get the cost of the replacement parts and then are going to call me with the quote. I told them Id rather the car was totaled

So I just got off the phone with a classic/exotic car appraiser, he said my diminished value is between $8200 and $13,900
