So, the most depressing thing happened last week.....

My baby got rearended....




Me and my boyfriend were driving to dinner, and we were stopped at a red light. This dumb asian broad slammed into us going at least 35+. She claims she "totally didn't see us." She barely spoke any English, and didn't even have her insurance information in the car with her. She had to call her husband to come play mediator.

She hit us so hard that my central locking freaked out and rapid fires locks/unlocks the car, so it's a **** to get in or out of the car now.

We're both very sore, but we're ok. We've got a police report open, and insurance claims are already in progress. I'm REALLY hoping that their insurance will be able to convince a body shop to actually do the repairs on their dime, or that they'll cut me a big enough check to do the repairs myself. If they don't, I'm pushing for a big enough chunk to buy a new car....

I am totally heartbroken, but grateful that none of my really cool Euro stuff was on the car yet (minus the taillights)... That's all safe..

It's official:

insurance is totaling out my car. I knew they'd do it right from the start. Still sucks to hear though... All of my cool stuff has already been pulled and is waiting for a new e30 to call home. I'm going to look at a few cars this weekend, so hopefully one of them pans out and I can get back into the swing of things.

That sucks!!!! I'm sorry for your loss

I was stoked at the start of this build, and saddened when I heard it got totaled, you seem to be more motivated than me. Hopefully you'll find a new one soon.

Damn, I was getting so hyped reading through this to see your post today. Makes you wonder how some people even acquired their licenses.

Damn I showed up to this thread at the worst possible time. On the bright side you can at least use all the best parts from your current shell and throw them on your next one.
