Hey toolfan, glad to hear that you and your family are safe. I hope your 5 will be back in action soon. Beautiful car!

My "baby" gets picked up today to go to the shop and get a make over. Car isn't even 5 weeks old yet. That is sad. Maybe I can get some pics whilst she is in surgery.

False alarm....I have to drive her damaged for 3 weeks while that new door and other parts are on order. That SUX....Instead of people going, "Hey thats a nice car!!!" They will be saying, "Man that is F#cked UP!!!!" Oh well, just my Karma I guess

How can you drive that? Your wheels fell off and probably some other very important parts

BMW Dude.....the pics were not of my car....just a 5 series I found on the net. I posted it to emphisize the safety features of the automobile. It looks that messed up and both occupants walked away with only minor injuries.

Sorry to hear of your bad luck! But could you at least now, add the door dent into the claim from insurance? At least that'll be a big consolation!

And that is precisely what I did. I looked around and told various shops that if they wanted the business then they had to fix the door also as part of the deal. I had several takers. People arn't stupid......2004 530i+damage= money so I get it fixed next week. They have to replace the rear bumper and inside components 2500-euro, driverside front quarterpanel, 1230-euro, driverside door, 2760-euro and the driverside skirt, 850-euro. Then painting and mounting is almost 2000 euro. So roughly 9500-euro...man is this chicks insurance getting RAPED. I guess she won't be talking on her cell phone whilst driving anymore. Oh and her 2002 Golf got tore up...alot worse than mine.
