totaled my 2009 M3 - RIP :(
more details later on how it happened, but it's thrashed, luckily i have full coverage insurance and hopefully they would get me a replacement. I'm too exhausted from the accident, I'm ok though, i could barely type!
 rear tyres were worn out, i was about to change them in 2 days, cars swerved all over the road and this is the result on a cold damp road    side airbags  oil leak all over place    Last edited by marwan; 02-07-2010 at 02:56 PM.. |

As long as you are alright, thats all that matters. Definitely sucks to trash a car - but they can be replaced and like you said you have the coverage. Don't get me wrong, I would be upset. Good luck!

Perhaps you should get the PlayStation version next. Safer. Long as you walked away all else will work its way out...

... a honda or other low end car would fold in half on impact like that.

Glad your okay though.
But looks like you were driving to fast for the conditions that you were saying, tires.. It always amazes me how people get into single car accidents. |

A sad loss and I am glad to hear you are alright and hopefully getting a new replacement. Though, this further shows the engineering prowess in the M3: not just its speed and handling but its safety as well.

Sorry about your car and glad you're OK. However, you can't blame the cold, damp roads or the worn tires. This is all driver error. Hope you learned a lesson. Peace.
