You are lucky they are even offering low book! Argue with them that high book is your replacement cost and hence value of the car and perhaps they will split the difference with you. Also I believe they have an arbitration process that you can request to determine value.

Good luck.

I suggest you go to the newspaper or other sources of online sales of cars and find comparable cars to yours. See how much they are selling for and show them to the insurance adjuster if it is more than they are offering. If your car is worth less than $7,500 you possibly could go to Small Claims Court against the person who caused the accident.
