It would have to cost over 150K in repairs to total the car.
I didn't mean it like that but I also didn't make it entirely clear what I was trying to say. Sorry.

By Lambo standards, it's not wrecked not at all, but by our standards of what the cost is to fix it, compared to over total cost of our cars, the car would be totaled. Not sure if I am making sense but it sounds right in my head! Lol.

Also how much do you think a car getting messed up like this affects the resale value? 200,000$ car becomes a ???,???$ car because of this.
