Sorry to see.....I got hit at 200 miles and 5 days into my ownership. It sucks, but the car is just like new again. Better actually considering the paint quality. Do yourself a favor and inform the Insurance co. that's handling this that you intend to file a "Diminished Value" claim.. Your car now has a Carfax record that will result in it being worth less when you eventually go to sell. A diminished value claim will help make you whole on this. Allstate paid me $2200 for my diminished value, over and above a perfect repair payment ($7K).
