[ATTACH][ATTACH][/ATTACH]Yes, she was wearing seatbelt, The driver was doing approximately 55-60 miles per hour when we were hit.. In looking at the car at the wrecking yard, the whole body appears to be twisted a bit,even the sunroof is sticking up out of the roof?? Hopefully this pic isnt too graphic?? If you have week stomach dont look at 2nd pic!! WARNING!!!

Holy crap. When you said second picture is graphic, I was expecting to see more indepth car damage. I did not expect to see your wife's hand nearly split in half. That be cringe worthy.

So sorry to hear/see! Glad you and your wife are okay with minimal injuries (even though the 2nd pic looks crazy!).

I hope I don't come off as insensitive, but will you be parting out the car at all? I'd love to get my hands on the exhaust if you won't be trying to transfer it to your next car.

Oh My Lord. I'm so sorry to hear that you and your wife were in an accident. Your poor wife's injuries were horrific (argh!). I wish you both a full and speedy recovery and trust that the trauma of the incident doesn't have any further detrimental effect on either of you.

Don't worry about the car as it's just a piece of metal at the end of the day. BMW pride themselves on the build of their vehicles and creating a safety shell for occupants is one of their greatest claims. Look at it as having been your shield. A damn good one! Keep us updated on how things progress. Wish we could help you in some way .

damn sorry to hear about your car and situation. Car looked awesome prior to the accident.

Side note i would take that second pic down. Its way too graphic and i am trying very hard not to remember what i just saw. Looks painful and hope for a speedy recovery.

As you can see in the last pic my wife is standing next to the car,( Thank God!) I cant explain the feeling as we were cleaning our personal effects out of the car, we both wanted to cry Seriously it was sooo emotional, we have spent soo much money,time and effort to build the car and now its good bye.. The claims adjuster will be coming out at a the end of the week, so well see what happens with it. I am sure it is totalled!!! We cant decide if we will replace the car or get a tank... Blessings to all!! Jim

The good thing is that the F10 did its job and saved the both of you. Time to pick up a 2013 550 with the upgraded navigation or M5?

Insurance has to total that. I would not want that car after its repaired for sure.

Damn, glad you 2 walked away in mostly one piece. I have a question on the impact. From the look of the picture, the cabin held up pretty good. I was wondering how your wife got that hurt as there doesn't appear to have too much glass on the passenger side. Was it from impact?

You know to be honest, we are not exactly sure.. the window did not break, she was adjusting her airvent at impact and we can only guess that the force of the airbag against the plastic ripped her hand?? The surgeon said it looked like her fingers were almost ripped off?? I thankd God for the air bags, but wonder if they may have ause more damage that good?? The police came to the hospital later and said they had never seen more airbags in a car....
