Man, sorry to hear about this Justin. The rash of accidents is still going on I see. A friend of mine wrecked his IS not too long ago and the damage didn't look as bad as yours and his is totalled. Here is a pic for reference. I really hope they total it out and find her at fault. Like the others have said it would never be the same if it was fixed. Good luck!

Rominl, the insurance company was actually toying with the thought of repairing it believe it or not. After 3 weeks they finally concluded to total it. You never know with insurance companies these days. Which is the reason for my earlier statement.

Three weeks to decide? That is bull****! Thank goodness I have State Farm, they are on top of it. They are talking to Mercury today and getting things all taken care of, and want the Lex in a body shop within the next few days. I just picked up my rental, Nissan Xterra. Off to work I go, would'nt it just be my luck if someone crashed into the rental?

State Farm is very good as well as AAA and sometimes Farmers. I work with many insurance companies and Mercury is one of those that are touchy when it comes to direct billing.

I guess if it pays the bills, though, you can't knock it.
