Looks like a perfect combo to me!

Any plans for carbon fiber pieces? ... e.g., tailight bezels

State Farm does not do agreed value. They do stated value which is basically appraised value. I just did this on my Diablo with State Farm.

Maybe it could be hosted at different cities each year

As much I as do love the black ... I don't like how all the shadows get lost in the gloss black of the wheel. I have thought about trying a satin black or anthracite grey plasti-dip. Maybe the vintage gold color is what you are planning: https://www.dipyourcar.com/true-metallics-info.html

BLACK!!!

I was just going to post that Maybe there is a turbine engine in there

Excellent!!!!

Depending on the type of insurance you have ... I thought you weren't allowed to drive your exotic car to work.

... we use that on all our cars!

Wow! That looks pretty bad. Is there any point to hang on to it even though it has a hole?

Wow! That's a pretty big hole on that header! I'll shoot you an email on the Quicksilver header source. Why did you pick the Quicksilver headers over the Kreissieg or any other brand?

Hey Chad ... you have any pictures of what the leaks look like on your headers? Here is all I can find on the issue: http://www.quicksilverexhausts.com/Lamborg...uctbulletin.htm Did you pull the engine to get the headers off?

Information about their privacy policy: "As far as personal information, we do not share any of your information with anyone other than you (this includes family members, your spouse (if any), the insurance company or potential buyers if you decided to sell the vehicle. If someone were to contact us with questions about your appraisal we would not give them any information and would let them know that we need written or verbal permission from you and only you in order to disclose any information. We also do not supply your appraisal to anyone other than you." All I did was take the required pictures, provide a complete list of modifications, and provide general information/history about the car for the appraisal. Since this appraisal was for insurance valuation for my policy, I provided an approximate ball park number for what I thought the car was valued. I received the appraisal back. Here is a run down of things in the report: (1) The values you get are: (1) Average Adjusted Comparable Price (compared to the other cars on the market); (2) Pre-Adjusted Fair Market Value (if your car was completely stock); (3) Fair-Market Value of the Car (which includes stock value of car plus upgrades/modifications/etc). (2) The comparable 'market survey' comprised a listing of all (only 3 for me) similar year/make/model cars currently for sale in the US. There weren't any figures, trends, etc. It appears the appraised value is based on cars currently for sale (or have recently sold). Now, I have no idea how this is going to work for the rise of Countach value. If it was me, I would provide links to the Countachs that have recently sold (like that red one at auction recently) in the description/information you send. (3) There is an entire page in which it provides NADA values and a run down of what low/avg/high retail mean for each of the NADA values. The appraised value of my car was much higher than what NADA reports as the 'current' value. (4) Pictures of my car that I submitted, pictures/info/prices of the cars that were used for comparison. Overall, I am happy with the experience and satisfied with the appraised value. The reason I went with this appraisal company is because it was recommended by my local insurance agent.

I found it!

I am doing it. Documents are in ... should have results next week. Will let everyone know how it turns out.

After seeing what the NADA values are for 2001 Diablos ($88k low retail, $108 avg retail, $136 high retail) and being told that is what State Farm uses as a guide UNLESS you have an APPRAISAL on file, I am going to go forth with the appraisal just to at least have that on file until I figure out where I will end up (if I change from State Farm) insuring the car. I was told verbally by my State Farm agent that State Farm uses the APPRAISED value and NOT the NADA value in the event of a total loss. Of course, I need to find/get this in writing though when I give State Farm the appraisal report. Oh, and the appraisal from the company I posted above takes 2-3 days and you get a 10-15 page report that supposedly includes a full market analysis ... Now ... compiling all the information/pictures is going to take a while.

Apparently, I mis-understand what the broker told me ... the deductible is $2,500 and not $0.

Glen at http://www.exoticwholesaleparts.com/ (forum sponsor) should be able to help you out with parts diagrams and list of parts.

I wasn't even asked about a deductible ... the broker just stated the policy would be $0. I thought that was standard for agreed value insurance.

Thanks for the feedback. I figured my pricing was high and was calculating based on the cost to duplicate my car ... repaint in VI, rebuild transmission for SE gearing, etc.

Car is a 2001 Diablo 6.0 ... for the agreed value, I am using $200k (cost to buy car, paint, etc to duplicate my car) ... estimated driving around $4k miles per year ... clean driving record ... etc Filling out the 'get a quote' (hagerty.com) returns $4,800/year with liabilities half that of what I currently have with State Farm and a $0 deductible. Working with a local insurance broker for Chubb/Hagerty/Safeco etc who was recommended to me by a guy owning almost 2 dozen cars, I am quoted $3,700 (Hagerty) with liabilities equal to what I have now with State Farm and a $0 deductible. The broker didn't even tell me what Chubb was because the quote came back really high! With State Farm, I am $1,300/year and $250 deductible. Are those numbers for 'agreed value' insurance normally that high when only shopping around 1 car? I know it is best to have all your policies in one place to maximize the discounts. USAA supposedly has 'agreed value' but I haven't reached out to them yet. The only reason I am shopping around is for 'agreed value' compared to State Farm's 'stated value'. I am just concerned that in a total loss, State Farm will try to pay out as little as possible. I was told by my State Farm agent that if you have an appraisal done to get 'stated value', that they will pay out the value of the appraisal in the event of a total loss. I doubt an appraisal would come back at $200k though.

Not sure yet ... insurance shopping, so don't know if I need to do this just yet if I switch.

Yes, DINNER (food was great!) did happen but the sudden weather halted all my plans to bring the 6.0. Glad you had a safe trip back! Maybe next time I come out to PHX
