this is completely out of topic.. but still insurance related.
A few days ago (the day when it was 15degrees out) on Yonge and Finch I saw a G35 rear end a really old-school classic 911 Turbo. In this case, can the owner ask for more than the cost of repairs? I say this because consider the value of the man's 911 Turbo; a lot I would assume. Because the jackass G35 rear ended him, the car will now have an accident title I would assume, and even if not, will have a non-original bumper (i.e. it is now replaced). This will ultimately drive down the resale price of the 911.

How can the 911 turbo owner be compensated by this? Will he be compensated?

I felt so sorry for the Porsche owner, his car was such a mint classic and the douchey guy hit him
