My 2023 C8 Stingray (7,500 miles) took some serious rear right corner damage. I post some photos so you can see, curious if anyone has dealt with similar damage, is it repairable and what kind of money are we talking?
Repairable, sure, but it would be cheaper to find a good used car for the cost of the repairs. In other words, every insurance company in the world would instantly consider that totaled. The trans is the main issue, then upper/lower fiberglass tubs, engine sub-frame. Those three major items are 20-30K each.
If you capable, you could buy it back and do the repairs yourself but it would be a hell of job. Or turn it into a track car and not do all of the repairs, and live with damaged tubs.
I believe the car to be "totaled". If it was mine, I would hope it would be. Obviously everything is repairable, but this car is going to need a significant investment. It will likely surpass the insurance companies repairs to value percentage. Just my $.02
I literally just spoke to somebody who had similar damage.. maybe a tiny bit more. his hood was spared, but the light wasnt, which I'm sure wasnt cheap.
...... his bill was in the $20k territory. he said there were 59 parts involved.

This is way more than 20k with transmission and tubs involved.
