Exclamation So...this is what $17,000 looks like... (NOT FOR THE SQUEEMISH)

Before:



After:




Okay so here's what happened:

A guy swerved to miss a deer, he hit the middle divider, it was on a highway...now, fast forward 10 seconds, i'm coming, he has no lights on, no flashers, nothing, and he's sticking halfway out into the left lane...i see him about 10 feet ahead of me, making me swerve so i don't hit him, and then i oversteer back to the left (which in retrospect, is good, because there was a cliff on the other side of the road), and i hit my rear end into the middle divider then the front ricochets into it...no one got hurt, and he was given a citation, i wasn't...it was "unavoidable"...so that's it fellas. I'm looking at a leased 2006 3 series, or a used m5.

I'll miss you guys, and I suggest you check my other posts for my stereo, because that's something that I truly enjoyed the most about my car. That and the handling

How much for the rims?

Just kidding, It hurts to see a Lemans Sunset like that. Is the car a write off? Like junkyard? BTW: you forgot to blur out the license plate in the third picture.

I resent that Z BOY...it's just not as practical as I would have liked it to have been...it's time for a sports sedan.

edit: your car is awesome.

Wow, very sorry to see that happen. At least you escaped w/o major injury...you can always replace a car.

BTW, Selling the seats?

Too bad that Deer aren't extinct...they're a USELESS animal.....No wonder they give hunters a license to kill when it comes to those dang animals.

Just a heads up: I will most likely be selling the amp rack and enclosure, and most likely the sub and two amps as well, but everything else to do with the car, I will most likely not be allowed to sell, as the car is totalled. I do not believe I will be able to take out the seats, etc. Sorry!
