The camaro build

[william_ace]

when do you expect to hear back from these guys?

[Fredo]

Today. Proper ****ed.

[KrazyKarl02]

Details if you care to give?

[FJAggie07]

What's up with it man? Did they screw you over?

[uglyota]

Don't forget that you have all the time you need to argue and nothing's final until you cash the check

I've had a phone conversation with my actual insurance agent and he says he's going to fight for me to get this resolved....but I didn't exactly get the feeling he was on my side. According to what he told me, the claim report states "car is not in show quality condition as stated by customer." That just pissed me off. I kept my cool, but like I said, I think the agent isn't on my side. I'm taking them a copy of the "receipt archive" since apparently they can't find any documentation on the last time we went through something like this. I'm not getting that warm and fuzzy feeling I normally get when dealing with State Farm. I miss our old agent already.

According to what he told me, the claim report states "car is not in show quality condition as stated by customer."

No ****, it just got three ****ing sign posts wrapped around it as it was going into a ditch... Morons.

[agjohn02]

you have pictures of it at a show... apparently it is show quality.

[BMFScout]

It won that show too!

[agjohn02]

take that state farm!

[Seth]

you really should.

[Fredo]

I really should what, Seth?

This is the short version. They apparently sent the claim from the adjuster to the "Total Loss Processing Center" that I got to call today. Apparently they called some number friday that wasn't mine and left a message and was waiting for a call from me. Well, the lady I talked to, who was a total ***** would wouldn't answer any questions informed me that they totalled the car, and established the value at $4450. They gave me the option to buy it back with a salvage title for $250. So if I went that route, I would get a car with a salvage title, then they would cut me a check minus my deductable of $500. Leaving me with a pile of broken and a $3700 check that wouldn't even come close to covering the $5500 worth of damage they wrote up much less what the car is worth. So this prompted a call to my Agent. He called me back around 1:15 today and from the responses I got, he doesn't exactly understand or care what the car is actually worth. I tried informing him that this wasn't a normal 92 camaro and that it, in even stock form is somewhat rare. I mean, they only made 2400 RS convertibles in 1992 for the "25th anniversary edition", and after 16 years, there is probably a lot less than that still on the road, much less as nice of condition as mine is in. I then pointed out that an autotrader online search yielded 5 1992 convertibles for sale in the ENTIRE UNITED STATES. He kind of ignored this and changed the subject, which did nothing but piss me off. He hasn't even seen the car either, picture or otherwise, so that's a little frustrating too. I'm supposed to take him copies of receipts tomorrow, but I doubt it's going to do any good. I think they've pretty much decided to rape my ass on this one.


Oh, by the way, here are the 5 for sale in the US. The first of which looks strangely familiar.
