oh man, I'm sorry. As a son that's wrecked a car or two in his day, I can tell you that your son is probably thinking about falling on his sword right now.

Its totaled. I have settled with the insurance jsut waiting on the check. I still have the car since that was the deal I worked out with the ins company. I have 2 offers on the car as it sits and its still drivable and drives perfect. The worst damage was the rocker panel took a bad hit. I am selling the car. It only has 128000 miles on it.

Yea I do like the BMW's. I have 3 now and I am in the market for an e30 is for my youngest son. I figure by the time he and I get it all fixed up he will be 16. I bought one a BMW on a fluke about 8 of 9 years ago because I thought I could make a few bucks from reselling it and just fell in love with the way they drive. I am also looking at getting rid of the Cabiro and get a e34 540i 6 speed manual.
