Hmm, I see you're in NJ, so I'm guessing labor rates are a little higher than I got. I still think that's a little high of an estimate (unless there's more damage underneath than we can see from the initial pictures). But since you mention there is some frame damage, it's probably a gonner (unless you can get the money for the car, buy it back and fix it).

Sorry to see your car wrecked. I didn't even get to see it at a NJ meet. I'll keep an eye out for ti's on sale too.

May we have a moment of silence for a fallen black ti? Sorry to hear that the ti will be totalled.

On a bright note time for a road trip to cali. You can just swap those mods to the other ti. Same color too what more can you ask for?

[pnosker]

If I go to cali, I want a cali top! Just as a souvenir... haha.

[StealthBimmer]

Then the local cali top for sale is not bad looking. You should think about it and the custom paint job.

[pnosker]

I called him up and he hasn't gotten back to me. I'm pretty interested in that one though.

[pnosker]

Great news!! I think I am going to be buying the ti of my dreams soon. It's a cali top. I'll fill in more details as they come.

[marko]

the one with the funny paint job?
if so plan on saving cash for a real paint job... but cali top is a nice option.

[pnosker]

No... I can't go into details right now... some things have to be worked out first but it's the perfect ti.

So it's got an N54 swap, vader seats, etc... Seriously though, congrats on finding another ti that you really like that's (presumably) in good shape. Can't wait to see some pics of it.
