Everything depends on the price. When a car is that new the used parts are tough to find, and you might end up sitting on it for months or more looking for decent used parts.
The airbags are a big minus since they probably eat up at least 40 percent of the total repair cost. On the other hand the 9100 repair cost is only about half of the cash value before collision.
On my Altima the repair estimate was 14k out of 18k cash value on a car that was originally about 30k sticker (loads of options).
I'm on the fence on this one. Think I'll hit it with a low bid and see if I can get it cheap. I doubt it will happen but with another one nailed in the rear end (no air bags) the two could make a good combination for one repaired and a lot of spare parts. I have seen 3 repaired cars from one parts car.
