Worth it to part out?

My insurance adjuster is going to decide tomorrow if my '97 I30 is going to be a total loss or not. She said one option (if it is totalled) would be a buyback of 10% of her value estimation...

Which means that I could buy the wrecked car for $500-700. If I were going to try to get my money back, would it be possible? My interior / rear end of the car is in good shape. Is it worth the hassle of shipping parts to people ? Would I even get my $500-700 back in part sales?

If it has black interior, just for the seats you'll get like 400-500

I just noticed that the word Infiniti on the back of your car is missing a letter.

i think you'll definately get that money back. the interior alone is worth big money to people for those rear headrests and full leather interior. i'd do it...goodluck

I would love to have a set of nice heated seats to replace mine... Anyway, I'm sure you have plenty of good stuff left on your car to makes a few dollars. What's the condition of the engine/drivetrain components?

if you are just looking to make up for the $500- $700 loss - you will make that back with out a doubt.... especially with the interior.

I'm sure that there are tons of people on here who would buy most of the stuff from you. If you've got mods, you wont get what you paid for them, but you will be able to make a few dollars on the payout of the car.
Good luck and I'll keep watching the for sale sections.
