Default Just about blue book

The insurance company was very fair about the value of the car, had it been stock. I was able to buy my silver car without losing a dollar on the deal. I did get completely ripped off on the mods, however.

I believe they're supposed to give you a calculated replacement cost (including sales tax) for the car, rather than a specific kind of 'value.'

Default They were all well under a year old

I bought the car in Feb, it was totaled Sept 15.

My clutch was done days before the Canadian GP in June. Exhaust was towards the end of the summer, SS and TBB were May, iirc, and the ECU was Feb. I also had some maintenance done just days prior to the accident, and that was not covered.
