I had 230,000 KM's on mine when it bit the bullet. From the looks of things though....yours is VERY repairable. I have a good condition driver's side strut with a Bilstein sport shock insert if you need it. The fender, door and lower control arm should just about do it for that. (well, I guess bumper skin, headlight and marker as well). I know Cam at CWS tuning there in Regina has a couple UrS parts cars.
Yeah, I would say you paid a bit too much for it....LOL....I picked mine up for $6K about 7 months ago. The 97 is going to cost me about $11K by the time I get it home, but it's worth it.
I'm amazed they offered you that much out the gate though.........hold out for arbitration and see if it goes up. Was it really low miles or something?

That would appear to be fixable. Might need a new (used) sub-frame for the suspension (and lower control arm, etc) plus the body parts.

I think that's repairable, I have a strut housing if you need it.

There is a pearl white S6 being parted on audifans, I 'd keep your car and
buy parts/carcass from this seller. Something to think about anyway.

I'm glad to hear you are OK. The car is repairable.

Definitely appears repairable. Don't let UrS6s go prematurely to heaven.

I want dibs on the front bumper cover, if you part it!! Mine froze into a snow pile overnight, In the morning I backed it up.........STUPID MISTAKE!!! It looked like a stick of dynamite exploded. Bumper pieces everywhere. That sucks where it was hit, my parts car is hit in the exact same spot.

Cam.
