traction control was on

summer tires I'm assuming...

sorry for the loss.. and you are safe, which is most important.

will you get another 135 if its totaled?

drinkcoke3 · 04-29-2012, 01:29 AM

yeah i am DEFFINATELY going to get another 135 when my insurance pays out. i love the car, and the fact that it was insanely safe in this was amazing. all of the emts were pretty amazed that i was fine. just some bruises. nothing advil cant handle.

thanks

Glad to see you're safe! This car is amazingly safe! I unfortunately had to go through an accident as well, but like you, I pretty much came out unharmed. This fact makes me love this car ever more.

WOW!!! I'm glad your safe, but the after work/before crash then after crash

. It brings a tear to my eye. you just went through all that work, to walk away with a great looking finished product by the way, then possibly having to start over from scratch. Again

, when your insurance does pay out are you thinking of going the same direction as far as colors and mods?

I am def gonna get the same color and do the same mods. I want to see if I can get them from the factory this time lol

Ah dude. Glad your okay! I saw an update about your bumper only to scroll down and see the other pics...

Hopefully you can get everything sorted out with your insurance. Looks that it might be considered totaled.. Never realized how much airbag packing could be ($4000!) which on top of everything else doesn't help.

Good luck man! Did you have your new wheels on?

drinkcoke3 · 04-30-2012, 10:23 AM

thanks dude for the kind words. i am so grateful that i am okay after that crash.

the wheels were NOT on the car, but dont fret, they will go on my new 1er when i get it

i just spoke with a dealer about getting the car in either estoril blue or monte carlo blue (just to be sexy obviously) and about possibly doing a european delivery as well as the performance delivery in NC.

i will keep you guys updated.

here are some daytime pics of the damage:

drinkcoke3 · 04-30-2012, 10:24 AM

and the sad thing is, my sister uploaded a pic of the accident to instagram and i yelled at her cause you couldnt see how nice the front bumper looked on the car, even when it was wrapped around a pole.

i only laughed about it considering i was ok, otherwise i wouldnt be laughing at all.
