Angry 1 month old

Corolla ran a red light, hit a BMW and bounced off to sideswipe me. What a pisser. I'm in a rental BMW and the body shop says it may take a month to fix as parts are not readily available for a new model like the '16 ILX.

Yeah, that's a bummer. The body shop and the other person's insurance should take good care of you, but it's always the inconvenience that sucks.

Yeah, everyone is okay. Even though the Corolla's airbags deployed, amazingly no one has any injuries. I'm in a 328i for now. Might swap it for something else if I get tired of it. Luckily the rental car office near me as a good selection of premium cars.

Enterprise has some interesting rental vehicles. Besides the normal fleet types, they also have some Minis, Volvos, Mercedes, BMWs; also I've seen Infinitis and even a 370Z. It just depends on what cars the branch has at any particular time.
