holy shit man that sucks!!!! looks like an asston of damage (dollar wise) and I'm sure their insurance is gonna hate them. This was at spring creek/121 eh? Were you coming back from work early or something? Looks like you were about to head back home...

michael1284 · 07-18-2011, 12:17 PM

Nah...I was omw to work going down the service road. I hit the curb thats why Im pointing the wrong direction...I was actually heading eastbound

PaiNFuLSeDaTiVe · 07-18-2011, 12:34 PM

ahhh, I guess there's a back road to lead from Morning star to Spring Creek? That or I'm just not thinking right on my grand total of 10 hours of sleep for the past 3 days...

michael1284 · 07-18-2011, 12:40 PM

haha no there's not. I was going eastbound down 121, crossing spring creek going towards legacy.

PaiNFuLSeDaTiVe · 07-18-2011, 02:34 PM

ahhhh i get ya, so when you got hit, it pushed you that direction, or you drove it that way to get outta the intersection. I see

but yeah, sucks man... lemme know how much the repair is if you could. I'm guessing $4-6K

Imperator · 07-18-2011, 02:39 PM

What the hell? Man, I'm sorry to see that Michael. Were you stopped at the intersection and rear-ended or already moving and about to cross the intersection when you were hit?

That looks like a whole lot of damage and I don't imagine the rain-slicked road helped much. I've been out of town since last week and completely missed the rain!

PaiNFuLSeDaTiVe · 07-18-2011, 03:08 PM

rain? I haven't seen a drop in weeks

Imperator · 07-18-2011, 03:10 PM

Oh, I heard we got a few drops on Friday or over the weekend. I agree, the grass is looking pretty parched now and I'm getting sick of 100+-degree temps

michael1284 · 07-18-2011, 03:11 PM

I was coming down the hill to the intersection. As I was passing through the 18 wheeler must have thought that the left lane was his....I ended up not having anywhere to go w/ 18 wheeler closing in and curb/traffic pole to my left. I slowed down a bit and the lady was on my ass too tight, she hit me and I flew towards the left, narrowly missed the pole and ran onto the curb going 30-40mph. I'm going to guess $10k+...

Looks like the early '11 iS that Classic had on demo for a while. That car also had the BMW Performance CF spoiler.

Newbie checking in, names Brian. I've had my new 11 e92 space grey m sport for 3 months and I've loved every second. I also live in Las Colinas, Royal at Riverside. Hope I can make one of these meet ups soon. I'll post pics asap.

DigitalMPower · 07-18-2011, 09:36 PM

Maybe I should just walk to work for the rest of the week...

Sorry to hear about the problems

Cause is still unknown. Shop said it looked as if someone had tampered with it before. I know I have never been in there, must have been the 1st owners problems.
Selling car after this. The car will be perfect and all problems taken care of when i sell, im just sick of spending money. Buy myself a S5 up next........

damn man sorry to hear that, if you do decide to part out the wheels let me know.
