Re: Ouch, my poor Z28
I agree with Kim. If the car is totalled, they pay you and you get to keep it. The title never needs to leave your possession. I just did this a few months ago.
 The exception (at least in MI) is that if it's new than 8 years old, then it does get a salvage title.

Re: Ouch, my poor Z28
The key thing is to contact your insurance company like Steve advised ASAP if you haven't done so already.
If it were me I would do what Chad said, total the car for $36k. I think the norm is 10% charge to buy the car back. That gets you back into the car for $3600. Have it restored for $20k. As far at the girl not getting a ticket...that's  She pulled in front of the Z, she is at fault and it’s called "failure to yield the right away", plain and simple!  Good luck on getting this all straightened out. Kurt
