Well... it finally happened. I crashed my car. Surprisingly, the car held up
reall REALLy well! I was hit at about 50MPH .. the 93 Ford Taurus that hit me
was totalled and my car suffered over $6k in damages. Pictures are below showing
bent engine mounts, bent strut tower brace, bent hood latch and some things you
cant see like the bent engine cradle and frame damage. My rims were also damaged.
No injuries to me.. so I guess Im lucky... BUT.. now that my car is 'damaged goods'
I have been seriously shopping for another car and actually put down a deposit for
one.. which one? That I will not say until I get a confirmed build date... lets just say it
is built in Munich... and I get 2 days at a driving school with this vehicle. :)
UPDATE: Stock market tanked and so did my M5 dreams. But I am MUCH happier with the
car I ended up deciding on! a 2001 Magnetic Red Corvette Coupe!!!!! :)
