If your Porsche has an accident listed on its Carfax, it has almost certainly incurred some Diminished Value, and is worth less than an identical model in similar condition and mileage.
If your Porsche has been in an accident, whether it has been declared a total loss, or is repairable, by having a Prior-to-total loss Fair Market Value, or a Diminished Value appraisal, you will almost certainly have a higher cash settlement than the insurance company is initially willing to pay. Applies to all vehicles, not just Porsches!
