When my car was hit (100% other driver's fault with witnesses who agreed and talked to the police), I could not come to an agreement with the other company, who lowballed me and refused to budge - this despite submitting ads for similar cars, KBB and Edmunds analyses, etc. I then turned to my insurance company, who settled with me for $1500 more and months later they settled with the other company. My insurer initially gave me the agreed amount minus my deductable, and eventually sent me a check for that amount too. This works only if you have collision coverage on your policy - your insurer presumably wants to keep your ongoing business, the other company wants to keep their money.
In Illinois, the insurance payout is supposed to cover taxes, registration fees, title transfer, etc.; this probably varies by state.
