Sucks to hear that. I just placed a "request" for a 2024 MT with my people yesterday. I know the struggle better than most, as this, if I can acquire it, will be the third MKV I've bought new.
I don't foresee the manual models really ever dipping in value, so whether it's now or in a couple...
I agree with this 10,000%. The red flag factory went into overdrive when he ignored you twice. Considering the minimal amount of effort it takes to send the most basic reply, or at least acknowledgement of your contact attempts, the deliberate deflection tells you all you need to know.

As a lifelong southern Wisconsin resident, IL drivers are on another level of fuckery. We can literally tell from the driving style that someone is a FIB, long before we confirm it by spotting the plate. I've driven to Superior and back a couple hundred times, and I can spot them from a mile...
Side note; I wouldn't be surprised if Auto Insurance becomes insanely expensive or companies start refusing coverage entirely in certain counties, or the whole damn state of Florida. The rate of flooding today is pretty nuts, and it's only going to get worse. Also, EVs are even easier to total...

..and without reading further than page one, I know it's once again going to be riddled with the strong opinions of men THAT HAVEN'T DRIVEN BOTH VERSIONS!! You guys are embarrassing.
Parts scarcity wasn't a factor, as I own other vehicles, didn't need a loaner, plus going into the winter months here meant I wouldn't need it back for months anyways. It was the level of damage overall, as the right frame rail is bent inwards, and the entire power train has to be removed to...
I SOOO wanted to, but can't, as I couldn't "devalue" the vehicle or remove anything it's supposed to come with when new, within reason. That's why I was free to strip my added stuff, as long as it was replaced with the factory equipped components. The vehicle's appraised value and money paid...

Update: The car, which I had named Sasha, is totaled. Preliminary repair estimate, in total parts & labor was $41,254.48.
Was able to swap out my Armytrix downpipe, RK Ti exhaust, @NitroYellowMKV steering wheel, JB4...
