Talked with the insurance adjuster today. 99% totaled. I am just waiting for their offer. Now the fun begins. Working on the new ride at the same time. 2013 Nismo MB with 7,750 miles.

I agree. The fun begins.
Are you going to be able to do a teardown for parts? Just for the car, my suggestion is to not accept the first offer because they will low ball (unless they are serious about your well-being and want to move on quickly). Consider a number that is acceptable to you plus a condition that you can take parts from the car. Let them know what you want. Pull your $aleable mods and then the headlights, seats, fenders, hood, and front bumper (mod money or pocket money). The adjuster will not have the time and appetite to go back there to inspect and will simply send the car to a jobber for salvage. Good luck.

I am ready for them. They don't even have a clue how ready I am.

And the ever important: Loss of affection (nookie, horizontal bop, mattress mambo, etc).... that's worth about $10k

Your injuries could keep you in pain for months or years even. One needs to plan for the worst case scenario when accepting a settlement. Their standard is usually to low ball or deny certain parts of a claim etc. Health specialists can help you with info on what might be in store as you get older. Not trying to scare you but as an older person I get pain from many old injuries.
