Insurance wants to total my car. How much should I ask for.

92 nissan 240sx right corner windshield crack. Paint is good no rust but has dings. The paint is a 25 footer. I am the original owner. Car has 170000 miles. Car is garage and taken care of. 5 speed no A/C and orginal car stereo. Driver side seat is rip. Carpet is okay. Original clutch. Koyo radiator and walbro fuel pump. The engine is strong and it was babied.

Is 3500 too much . Sorry I don't have pictures. Thanks

i don't think YOU get to tell the insurance how much they pay you, THEY decide how much to give you and it's usually the blue book value.

so for a bone stock 92 240 w/ 170k prob. like 1200-1500 i'm just guessing out of my head.

I wouldn't be surprised if they left you with $500.

^ I'm some what with him....you can negotiate a price for your totalled car. But you are going to have to back up your claim as to why they should pay that much. There was a thread somewhere about this....
