Sorry to hear of your loss.

Motion went through this some years ago - if I recall he built a case using the PCA value, Bruce Anderson's valuations in Excellence, and then surveyed completed sales (in addition to classified ads).

Data is your friend. Especially with a Turbo look - I'd search through Pelican and find every Turbo look owner and ask them to send you an email with the price they paid, miles/condition; look through classified listings and ask the seller the same.

The adjuster at State Farm is your friend. Don't piss them off, don't yell, whine or randomly complain. Ask what information they need from you to re-evaluate their offer. Approach it professionally and without emotion. Time is on their side and they know it.

Good Luck.
