State Farm Insurance Auto Claims ripoff unfair total loss value

Another State Farm policy holder backed into our car in a parking lot as my wife was driving to a parking stall. My wife has back injures and the car passenger side has panel damage from front to back including hub caps.
The claims office requested that we take our car to a State Farm recommended body shop which quoted over $2,000.00 to repair the damage.

The car is considered totaled and we are offered $688.75 to settle or sell the car to State Farm for $1213.76.
The value of the car is the question?

After days of reveiwing the market we are unable to find a similar 1993 Toyota Corolla DX for under 2,800.00
In checking the VIN numbers of the 2 or 3 cars we found for sale, I found the cars had problems on the reports. Our car has a clean VIN report.

I asked the office to consider that with gas prices increasing that economy cars are valued at a premium if you can even find one. I also asked them to just repair the car back to the condition it was before the accident.
Any suggestions? We are open to a legal approach!
