totaled?

How much damage do you guys think. You think they will total it. No air bad deployment

Really tough to see the extent of the damage from the pics but I'd say you are close to totalling, maybe just shy of it. Had the air bags deployed, I would say yes for sure.

probably not totaled. It doesn't look that bad. Will likely only need a slight pull on the frame.

Plan on it being totaled. You have frame damage basically need a whole new front end. Sorry to tell you this...

This looks like a total to me. I've seen them total cars with less damage...

total for sure. The Parts alone will probably do it. You wouldnt believe what things like the headlights, hood, intercooler etc list for.

I would be happy to have it written off if insured well. Then I'd buy the wreck and start project track car or part it out

All I see is a damaged radiator support. I would highly doubt there is actual substantial frame damage. It depends on the insurance company and worth of the Evo. It would be a shame to see this totaled when its so simple to repair.

Don't jump to ANY conclusions just yet. Listen to what the pros have to say on this when they see it. Worst case scenario, they total it, you buy it back and put her back together again in even BETTER condition then when you started...Best of luck, I hope you save her, one way, or another!

$20k. I had a very similar damage to yours from a teenage girl texting on her phone.

This. Bumper, Hood, fender, bumper beam, radiator support, intercooler, headlight. All of those parts any insurance company is going to go by "reconditioned" pricing for the parts (used parts basically). This will likely get fixed. The insurance will likely value the car at around $18-$20k, and most will pay at least 65% of the value to fix it..

No it's totaled. Buy it back, part it out, and make some money.

Evo's are too niche to find reconditioned parts reliably. Just try and find a set of headlights and you will see what I mean. The insurance will probably try and lowball you on the payout though so make sure what they are offering seems fair to you based on what evo's in similar condition (pre-crash) are selling for local to you. Then buy the car back and turn it into a project, or sell it for parts.
