Man, everyone is having the worst of luck lately. Earlier this week with Scheer, and from what I understand, a few of Scheer's buddies took some spills recently aswell.

Good luck with repairs! JOY

nice to know that you're ok. I'm sort of in the same boat as you, in the sense that my damage is "only" 10k . Not raining or anything, just being stupid by turning the TC all off, spun out and took out a wooden post. Oh well, gotta learn things the hard way

Sorry to hear Fminus..... Cars can be replaced. Leased car? Time for a new one?

i realize you are probably looking at your options but as a fellow member, I will raise the possibility that putting in $30K would not be the best move. You can get pre-owned M5s for $70K. Do you have an efficient method to to part out your car?

Fminus, I am not sure if you are a member of the M5board but I kicked off a thread there to see if others may have suggestions to help you through this...

Good Luck man.
