I'm sorry to hear that! Hope you find your way into another Mercedes, and glad she's ok. It's hard to tell if it's totaled from just those pictures, but my guess will be yes if there's any engine or frame damage.
I would guess totaled as well, but what a "clean" front impact. No real damage to the hood or driver front quarter panel. Looks like a future salvage titled vehicle
totaled. and i wouldnt take anything less. i dont want the same car repaired. sorry to see what happened but glad to know your wife is safe. its a car and can be replaced by the same or a better one any time.
in a situation like this, does the insurance company get the totaled car? or do you get to keep it since it's 'yours'? are you obligated to give it to them? or can you sell off parts?

the insurance pays the agreed value or the book value. they get to keep the car but. although others will let you get away with some parts like wheels, hu and the like.
My guess if the frame didn't twist it is repairable. Most of the front clip is sacrificial in a collision to protect the occupant. I think the Insurance will go for repair.
I'll bet you could cut the wires to the bumper and drive it home.
