Totaled my 135i

[KaiserRolls]

Glad you and yours are well man

Sorry to hear. Buy it back from insurance, you will make out much better being able to sell stuff off the car for good money. They usually only want around 15% of the car's value.

Thanks guys.

Interestingly enough I'm already looking at a potential replacement. It would involve a 1-way plane ticket and fun drive back to WI. We shall see once I know on Friday exactly what insurance will pay out to me.

Cars can be replaced - glad you and your wife are good and hope for a quick recovery!!!

[Boris3]

Ouch, glad you're both ok.

[TehRaydarlover]

Jesus, glad you and your wife are okay. Looks like the 135i held up pretty well. That's one thing that kind of scares me about my e30. I don't think it would hold up nearly as well as this did in the event of a crash, plus no airbags

[suspenceful]

Dang! Sorry to hear and see this. Glad both of you are okay, for the most part. I wish your wife quick recoveries.

That being said... I'll take the LSD if you don't get another 1er. I would also be down to swap interior trim if you don't have a use for it.

PS: Jet black or black sapphire metallic?

[mkoepp]

Glad you both were not seriously hurt. Hope you get into another bimmer soon.

[Bassboy3313]

Glad you two are ok and nothing worse happened. Hoping for a speedy recovery for your wife as well.

[SubmuzikBoss]

Yeah glad y'all ok

Like suspenseful

With that being said

U don't have a jb4 for sale do ya

[Earl]

Snap texted me a pic the other day and I was surprised how well the front end absorbed all of the crash.

Hopefully your wife recovers quickly. Whiplash and spinal injuries are no joke. Luckily you guys didnt sustain any other injuries.

I vote for you to get a compact, buy the car back from insurance, and then swap the n54 into the compact. That would be one insanely fun and fast car=)

Thanks guys, really appreciate all the good thoughts. 

I've been chatting with a guy in VA who has a very clean 135i for sale and as long as it's still available by tomorrow and insurance doesn't screw me over, I will be putting a deposit down. 

however, if it falls through and I can't find another suitable 1er, then susp I will definitely hit you up about the LSD - I already uninstalled it last night and it's all good. I got a screamin deal on it for 1700 bucks (pre-2007 335i bolted-on ring gear, complete with pumpkin) and I could easily sell it for 2k+ but I'd obviously just sell it to you for what I paid for it.

I sent you a PM

Just solidified my replacement. Deposit has been made and loan approved.

I will be flying out to VA this coming week to pick it up and drive it back.

Even a step up from where you were!  I like that trunk, make sure the wife doesnt slam it shut!!

[i_love_cars]

You're assuming she will touch the car at all, sir. That's a big assumption. She can keep to her big boat of a Honda Pilot 

[YoungCR]

That thing is hot!

[Brian.]

Sorry to hear about the accident! Glad to hear both of you are relatively okay! That thing doesn't look bad for 60mph into a median. Buy your 1'er back. And sell me those wheels.

That's a good looking car!  You should swing by Lustine Toyota and look at a sparkling graphite metallic 335i for me while your in Virginia lol

i will literally be driving right past that dealer on my way home. If you are serious about it I could take a look. 335 is not an easy car to find with a manual trans.
