sad day



got a call from my cousin yesterday, i could tell he was shook/depressed by the sound of his voice. turns out that he got hit on the road by some lady who wasnt paying attention while backing out of her driveway. sent his car spinning then later landed in a ditch, i went to go pick em up and i just couldnt believe it. brand new m3 just a few months old just mangled . i know it sucks to have sometin happen to the car ya love, i've been there before. just the other day i was detailing that thing up and it just looked sick when i was done. thats also the car i learned to drive stick on so it does hurt to see it banged up.

sorry for my ramblin..

Ouch! That sucks. If that was my M3, I would be bawling my eyes out.

How bad was the damage?

front bumoer is cracked, same with the rear, the whole passenger side needs to be replaced, the rear right wheel just about fell off, and from looking under i saw some part of the frame broken

i hope they total it, the e46 M3 is notorious for sub fram disconnection. Putting the frame back together would kill the car's performance.

That just purely sucks, I think I would just repeatedly vomit if that happened to a M3 of mine. Of course I have to have one first

That sucks big time... someone would seroiusly have to hold me back not from killing the old lady who wasn't looking...

Glad to see your cuz is ok, since cars can be replaced, and no major bodily harm was done..

Darrin,

Sorry to hear about that ... I would cry if I had an M3 (or anything that expensive) and someone crashed into it. (Well, I would cry if someone crashed into my TL-S...)
