There gona give you like 600$ for it. Unless you have superproof of work done, condition of the car, etc. Did the insurance company come look at it after you crashed?

Insurance companies usually have their own people who look at cars to determine value. They are called adjusters and they compare the value of the car as is, to what the car could be worth. They guestimate this value from using Kelly's blue book as a guide...

Unfortunately our cars do not hold their value that well as compared to the newer mk4 supras, even in the best condition..
