What a shame! I hope you get a fair settlement and are back in a 911 soon. Best of luck!

So sorry to hear about the turn of events. They are great cars. I will soon be listing my 2001 Black on Black Carrera. Not sure where you'll be on the insurance reimbursement and all but if you have any interest feel free to email me at sdiamond1025@gmail.com. Oh yeah, 62k miles terrific condition.

Sorry to hear that and good luck with insurance. I hope you don't have one of those insurance companies that have a high total out ratio.
