Yeah, but not final yet. ICBC offered 9115 for the car, and is holding very firm to it, even though I have half a dozen ads for RC's selling anywhere from 10-12k....
I'll be buying it back, but am unsure of what I will be doing with the car. I may sell it whole, or part her out. Parting out will be very hard, as I live in an apartment with no storage, have no transportation to move parts, and will have to pay a shop to strip it.

UPDATE:
ICBC did not budge on their offer for my claim, as I hoped they would.
Also, If anyone comes across an RC for sale, shoot me a pm, I want another, and I don't want to throw away money on a cheap car to get me by in the meantime, so I need to find one asap. Preferrably grey again.
If I can't get one in the condition I'd like I'll most likely import a supra as cheap as possible until st205's are available.
Thanks guys.

Wow, they keep bringing these things over like they're a dime a dozen. Ofcoarse, looking at the Auction Report, these are fairly beat.
Otherwise I'd ask craig to start looking for ya. Unfortunately the cost of our cars is going up every month But since your a repeat customer, i'm sure he will give you a deal on the service fee. They did for my friend.
Gt-Fours in general are now running between 7-9 grand for one in good nick.
I saw an IMACULATE black rc for sale on j-spec for 13grand!

Sad actually, I've left them numerous emails, and even left Ben (the guy I dealt with) 2 direct emails with absolutely no response. Pretty pissed actually.Corey Darling":3asve6nw said:Otherwise I'd ask craig to start looking for ya. Unfortunately the cost of our cars is going up every month
Gerry at Terra2imports has been very helpful, even giving advice on dealing with ICBC. But they tend to be more expensive.
The problem with my search for a new one is my pickiness. I want another one in the condition mine was in.
I'm actually computerless at the moment, and no internet either. I have a work provided phone(sell for rogers) so communications costs are not much of an issue, so I've never ventured beyond calling cards really. I even took the berry to mexico without thinking twice lol.Corey Darling":1rzbs81h said:

Mmmm clean 93!
I've seen afew on craigslist, http://vancouver.craigslist.ca/car/605072983.html. That one has been for sale for a few months now, I think he started around $13 000.

Also a member up in edmonton was selling one http://www.alltrac.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=25383
Yeah man, it was quite a thing to be able to say I own my dream car. Part of me died the day of the accident.st185rc":2k6y3v4s said:
Thanks for the heads up on the '93, as it is also a rare car, but I really want another RC.
I've gotten hope again as Corey re-established contact with j-spec for me (thanks Corey!
) so we will see what they find.Hotrodhendrix

My heart just dropped looking at those pics. They really make me feel sick...
Purchase a POS car for now and then pick up one of the first st205 WRC. That should give you time to save up and after you get the 205 you can sell that beater and buy some parts for the new GT4!

Perhaps I already have a game plan of that variety
Okay, so if I cannot find an absolutely mint RC, one that I will be keeping indefinately, then a mkIV supra will be my import of choice. It will go for sale the day it arrives, and will serve as a filler car until st205WRC's are available. In the meantime my family has an old 84 or 85 tercel wagon that was grandma'd from day 1(literally, it was my grandma's) that I will use until I get something imported, I just have to go get it.
