My car was declared totaled

Luckily I have gap insurance, uninsured motorist coverage and completely not at fault. My record is clean but my rate is jacked. Oh well. I'm still here. I'm waiting for the insurance company to give me a quote on the buy-back of the vehicle...
Anyone with experience totaling a leased vehicle from VW? Also has anyone ever bought back the vehicle from insurance company to part out the engine, tranny, or other parts? What can I expect next and how many months am I looking at before this whole thing is done and over with?
BTW I was at the LA Autoshow and honestly, I had a hard time finding something as well-crafted, fun, strong, quick/handles and german-feel as a 337, even up to the high $20K/low $30K range... Just to make the list even shorter, I now need a 4-door (baby is coming)... TSX, G35 AWD, WRX wagon, Mazda 6(maybe not), 337 Jetta(when?), Saab 9-3, EVO (Sh*t feels so damn cheap and probably high ins.) and thats about it and I don't even really like any of them (ok except G35). Too bad A4 avant is so overpriced, but yet so sweet looking... damn! What else?

Sorry to hear that

Well if you don't stay VW the Mazda3 is looking pretty good.
I'd find another 337 and just replace it. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

you could always buy back the car and fix it or turn it into a race car.......I did that with my 84 GTI

Sorry to hear about your car. I say just to buy another one.
BTW is anyone keeping track on how many 337s have been totaled?
Just for poops and giggles

Re: Its official, my 337 is totaled (keifa9)

sorry to hear about the car...better the car then you though.
The TSX is a really nice car but it's on the slow side. It really needs about another 30hp, but the interior and everything else is top notch. If you have the money a used S4 would be a fitting replacement for the 337

The new Jetta GLI will be out soon, and it is a 99% replica of your car, minus the silver color, 4 doors, and sunroof. If you want the same feel and roughly the same performance at the same price, that is the best option.

Re: (IzeCold)

Sorry to see that.

You could find an Audi Assured S4 though! That'd be a great car after the 337.

If you can afford it, the G35 is the way to go, hands down.
