Alas, she is lost to me.

My Sexy has been totaled.

Sad Panda.

(No, I'm not getting a Panda, they don't export them to the US and they're much too small for my brood and not equipped enough for me, I am now addicted to keyless go and MUST HAVE IT AGAIN!)

Ahem.

Market value topped out near 16k after taxes. I have no idea how much I'm actually getting back for the car, as it was a lease and all that. I also have no idea what to do next. SLB and Mama A are going to the dealership to salvage the plates and whatever else is in the car we need tomorrow, hopefully they'll beat the insurance tow truck.

Can anybody tell me what to expect?

Have you considered buying a moderately used car instead of a new lease?

Actually, working on that side of the car market has pretty much soured me on used. Yes, they can be cheaper in the long run, but I like getting a brand new car every 2-3 years with comprehensive warranties and gap insurance. And I've seen too many deals go south due to underhanded tactics and bad dealing. I know V at Serafini won't screw me over.
