First Drive in our "Fire Damage" McLaren 650s after Sitting For 3 Years!

The problem with unnecessarily large payouts is that the insurance companies need to recoup the loss and have to charge everyone more. We all end up paying for that.

[@suecobandito8954]

Right. How come insurance headquarters are so nice? From not paying out claims.

[@markbennett6658]

@@suecobandito8954insurance companies apparently don’t make that much from underwriting insurance, most of their profits come from reinvesting your money elsewhere whilst sitting on it between receiving the premiums and having to payout or so I was told years ago!

[@AndyK.23]

Amen! I was going to post about the obvious insurance scam/sillyness.

[@nighthawk0077]

I don't think is a very big problem considering it's exceedingly rare, plus they are posting multii billion dollar profits every quarter.

[@BrienDunn]

Wow. The previous owner’s story is crazy. Geez. This might be the most unique purchase you guys will make. Going to be hard to top this. Loved Christian’s expressions driving the car. You guys are amazing and my fav auto and aircraft KZbin channels. Oh… would be very hard to sell something that incredibly nice.

[@williamkaswen9922]

Sell the jet, keep the car. Do you really use the jet, enough to justify it ??? Anyway, you know your needs, Best of Luck!

What a result for you two. Brilliant purchase and she cleaned up like a brand new car. Sort that little scratch and what a result Congrats.

Yup that’s audison bit10 dsp and hertz amp probably have upgraded aftermarket speakers, most likely a knob or a screen in the car to control the setting for the dsp on the fly

[@Nyx_88888]

Invest in a car blower dryer which can also be used to blow dirt and dust from interior. Metro vac

[@tatajelmer]

Maybe the spots mark the places where molten plastic or something has dripped on the car but they managed to clean it up pretty good?

[@IAA_Auctions]

Glad to see there was no damage and just a proper wash & polish brought it back to life!

[@brucecoudrey1246]

So satisfying watching that car come back to life

[@12voltshocker79]

That is an Audison bit one audio processor, and an Audison multi channel amp (can't tell from the video witch one) it's absolutely aftermarket equipment, it's a high end processor designed to take the signal from the factory radio, adjust and allow tuning to send to a amplifier. More than likely, it has some high-end speakers and possibly an added subwoofer. It's absolutely better than the OEM sound system, just like performance parts and tune can provide more hp, that audio equipment can absolutely outperform the stock setup. Most of what people think is good OEM audio isn't any good to an audiophile, and it will show on test equipment compared to aftermarket

[@ultimatetrashgamer8495]

That's a awesome story! I have a couple cars insured at a specific value and I'm always shocked when the insurer never contacts me to lower the insured value. Such a odd industry.

Still with a salvage title at most its worth 75 percent of a clean title. Even tho it was NEVER hit. Amazing how a pc of paper can mean so much. TRY GETTING A LOAN FOR SALVAGE......near impossible...thats why the value tanks. Hope you didnt pay more then 65k.....its worth 112 to 115k id say without a doubt😊 god i would love that car.

[@neilpickup237]

It is quite possible that the smoke smell would dissipate in a couple of years, HOWEVER, even if it took a year to do so, rather than the two it has had, I doubt if anyone would deem it reasonable to expect the owner to put up with the smell while it did. As such, even though it sounds excessive, all that replacement could actually have been necessary to return it to the road within a reasonable time free from the smell of smoke. Going by your brief summary of the events, I suspect that all the 'extra' costs such as lawyers, expert testimony etc. came to far more than the amount they were trying to save, and that no one thought to re-examine the car ro see if the smell of smoke was still present, but went on the initial reports etc -.oops! But great for you.

Insurance companies take your monthly premiums and then do not want to pay the claims. And then like in Florida and California, they want to jack up premiums sky high or leave the state after years of taking customers money.
