[s-cars] Another one bites the dust

Driving home a couple of nights ago, another car came into my lane,  
cutting me off. I ran off the road in an attempt to avoid a collision.  
I avoided a collision with the other car, but not the sidewalk! My  
passenger side front tire struck the sidewalk, denting my rim and  
blowing out the tire. This caused the tire to shred my fender. My rear  
end slid out and as I spun around my front bumper was knocked off and  
the grill was pushed into the radiator. The front end is mostly toast  
right now. So I figure the car will be totaled? Is that what I should  
expect? The engine worked ok to get me home (about a 1/4 mile). If it  
is, should I buy it back and part it out? How much should I expect?  
Any help in this area is appreciated. TIA! BTW it is a 93 so I suspect  
that there may be some CF trim available soon.
