So today I decided to go to post office after work since I had some packages to ship.

It was raining and I was doing about 25-30 m/h. Of course I had my stereo on and I was enjoying my trip. All of a sudden I see this corrolla loosing control and heading towards me. Holy ****. Next thing I know. BOOM. Then her car bounces back from my passenger door and hits another car parked on the side. I tried to get out of the vehicle but couldn't. Had to use passenger doors. I had my stupid airbag light on so airbags did not deploy. That corolla was destroyed pretty bad. Both airbags exploded and driver was bleeding .

The funny part is like 20 mins before the accident I went to autozone and bought some meguiars wax, dashboard cleaner and microfiber towels to clean my car.

I really loved this car and took a good care of it.

What do you guys think. Can I call it a total loss and get a full refund? or how thats going to work now. If it is not a total loss than I'll take the money and will take it apart.

depending on the person you are, you could be driving a new '09 GTI in a few months.

By the way, when you say if it's a total loss you'll take it apart; what do you mean? You realize if it's a total loss you lose the car, right?
yeah, if its a total loss I loose it, but if they cut me a check I'm not fixing it.

 
the check will be cut not really to you but to the place that is fixing it, or atleast its supposed to be, unless they total it, its not really up to you
Why they will cut a check to collision place if I'm not going to fix it. I have a choice, either I take a check and fix it myself or their shop fixes it and gets a check.
