my old e39 saved my sisters life this morning. she swerved to miss a deer or something like that, and ended up going head first into and almost 90 degree embankment, then the car spun back around and landed on some rocks in a ditch. this happened around 3:30 this morning in richie canyon, she was coming back from her friends house. qoute from one of the cops "she lucky she was driving a german car or it could have been alot worse"
i gave her the car earlier this year and my dad gave me his passat.
we went got all the stuff we could get out of it later in the day, then sold it to pick a part for 400.
her it is when it was mine.

and now

looks like the car absorbed a lot of energy while still leaving the cabin intact, thats what you want
