How much did you buy your TII for?

If someone already did this, gimme a link to the thread please. I just had my turbocharger catch on fire (probably the source of the problems i've been having...) I'm afraid that my insurance company is going to try and say the damage is too much and that they're going to total it for half the Kelly Blue Book, which is low anyway. I paid 4500$ for it and have at least another 6000$ in it, so I don't want this to happen.

I need what year you car is, how many miles on it when you bought it, the location where you bought it and from who (dealer, person to person, etc.), general condition, and anything else significant that you can think of. Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

5000 dollars

It had 48k original miles when I bought it, and compression was excellent. I'd do it again if I had the chance. One of the cleanest 16 year old cars I've ever seen.

I'd like to think so. There are some dents and things to fix up. But its already back on the road, and with all my mods, my total investment hasnt even topped $2500. That includes a replacement motor and tranny.

Dings, cruddy paint, and in need of a complete exhaust.
