If the sway bar mounts are tweaked, it's got frame damage and will be a total loss.

A 2006 M35 is only worth $3-5k private party, so even minor body damage means it's a total loss from an insurance perspective.

You'll spend more than the car is worth to have it straightened on a frame jig.

If your insurance quoted $1900, then your insurance company knows about this, even if they aren't getting the bill, right? If so, that quote was at insurance rates which are lower than normal shop pricing. Your cost will be significantly higher, but less than replacing with a similar model of the same year.
