I also realize that I cannot necessarily use US prices as the value between a car in the US and a car in Canada cannot be fairly determined just by adjusting for the currency exchange rate.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hey everyone,
Lost my '92 Tip Cab due to an accident last week and now the insurance company has made me an offer to replace it - $15,700 CDN.
I know their game is to lowball me and hope I take it, so I said "no way" and told them I would build a case myself to support the true replacement value. If that doesn't work, off we go to arbitration.
I would expect my car to have sold for ~$22k if I had it on the market right now in my area (condition explained below).
I realize this is not an easy thing to do as prices range dramatically on these cars depending on condition, kilometers, etc. I also realize that I cannot necessarily use US prices as the value between a car in the US and a car in Canada cannot be fairly determined just by adjusting for the currency exchange rate. Because there are so few 968's in Canada, they command a much higher price.
I'm trying to take a "mostly Canadian" approach by looking at past and current 92-95 tip/cab sales in Canada. I may have to also include coupe sales and then attempt to calculate the price differential between the coupe and cab to show some history, i.e. finding 4 coupe sales in Canada for an average of $18k and then showing that cabs typically command a $3k premium would suggest a possible value of my cab closer to $21k.
If you know of or can find any 968's either sold or for sale in Canada, please let me know. I have done all of the current Craigslist searches so I've got all of those. Anything else you know of or can dig up would be much appreciated!!

My car is (was?) black with light grey/black interior, 63,000 miles (US car), no special options, a "9" inside and an "8" out. Everything worked perfectly on the car, ran and drove perfectly, no dents or dings, paint was good but had minor blemishes here and there (tough to see but I'm a perfectionist), top and rear window were perfect.
New top / mechanics in '03, seats recovered as factory new in '04. I just spent $5k on FULL mechanical service of everything on the car. It ran & drove like a new car. Just spent another $3k in the last two months on lots of little extras (new Kumhos's, upgrade headlights, aluminum sills, stereo & speakers, perf chip, etc.).
I provided $8k in recent receipts to the insurance company adjustor. I know I'll never get everything back that I put into her but I should be able to get ~20k.
Any help/advice would be appreciated......thanks guys!
