Said Alabama law requires that if car damaged more than 75 percent of value, it must be totaled. Great car with sport package. Wife insists on getting another Bimmer. Scared of the 535i twin-turbos and related costs. Tend to keep a car a long time. Looking at 528i, either 2010 or 2011. Advice would be greatly appreciated.
Have her look at x3 diesel.
