[quote=Anonymous]what insurance companies do now,  is rather than just looking at the KBB or NADA book value,  they actually have a sevice that searches out cars similar in age, simlar options  and milage to yours that have recently been sold.  IE actuall selling prices.

This means that they still can cherry pick cars with lower sales prices  or if you have  unique vehicle with unique options  some or all may not be considered in the sales price.   so you need to take a look at  the sold prices,  take a close look at options listed, mileage, and even location that the vehicle was sold.

also don't for get to ask for sale tax reimbursment, and also dealer fees

did you just have any work done to the car,  tires, detail, ect.  they will stil try to under cut you a bit,  but  they have gotten a bit better.

also take a look at places like auto trader and cars.com to see what asking prices are going for for cars similar to yours.

you want to be reimbursed for as close to retail sales price you can get.   [/quote]
