Default Got rearended this morning.

On my way to the shop on I-10 in traffic and wham! My heart was broken. Love this car. I was able to drive it back home. Much tougher than I thought it was.






But it's fixable. His insurance is taking care of everything. Plus the rental car until it's fixed.

At least it was only a Beemer instead of the Z.....

Sorry couldn't help myself. Sucks to get hit in anything.

I do believe your right. He has Nationwide. They have taken care of a full size rental for the next 30 days for me. And getting it to the body shop. This is the same shop that fixed my ZR-1 and made her look better than new when it got hit. And the adjuster came out and cut me a check for $5,300 and said it will probably be more than that once they start pulling it apart. But that the supplemental will take care of that. I'll tell you this much! That Bimmer cost far more than the ZR-1 does to have fixed. Just the damn alternator cost $540 on that car. It's enough to make you pass out. Thank god he had insurance.

Consider yourself extremely lucky because most rear-end accidents can result in a lifetime of neck pain/headaches/migraines so cut your losses and thank the big man upstairs you are ok.
