My smashed 335i

While I was at the tire store looking at the damage my wife did to her new 07 Accord (She hit a pothole and bent the 17" rim) some lady backed into my new 335i with only 398 miles on it. This is why I lease. To add insult to injury I have a shiny new Sebring rental to drive while my car is in the body shop. What a piece of crap! I miss my car.

What was the lady's "excuse"? Was she talking on her mobile phone?

I can sympathize with ya on the rental! When I took my car in for service, I got a Toyota highlander.... and it smelled smokey.... I did choose it though, they said it was either that or a saturn.... I wanted to maintain a "Little" shred of dignity, so I went with the "semi" sport utility.... Infinity still gives my mother-in-law their top cars to drive when she takes hers in...
Sorry bout your car........

I feel for you. Hit and run on Thursday night on my baby with 2900 miles. Hopefully the bumper can be popped out rather than replaced. I feel sick to my stomach.

I got may car back yesterday! The body shop did a great job of fixing it and mathcing the crappy factory orange peel. My 06 330i had a mirror finsh but my 07 looks like Ford painted it. Anyway I absolutely love this car! So glad to have it back.

I'm sure it is nice to get back in the 335i

When I am away and driving rentals now, it just feels that much better when I get back to my car
