You wrote: "Repair estimate $4,100. Insurer's TL settlement to me: $4,200. Therefore considered a TL. Registered in CA. However, insurer is willing to give me $3,650 plus return the car to me unrepaired."
Ask your insurer if they are going to declare it a "salvage car" with the state. Just because they deem it a "total loss" in their damage payout calculations does not mean the same thing as declaring it a "salvage car" with the state - in fact, less paperwork to file may be appealing to them. It sounds that in return for reducing their payout by $550 that they are not going to take the "salvage car" route and allow you to do what you like with the car.
