E90 accident.

I was headed home yesterday around 4:45 pm in Broomfield and saw a blacked out E90 with black M6 wheels got into a fender bender. I'm guessing it was a male driver. Anyone here or know the guy? Looked pretty bad from what i could see.

because I saw a male driver and an old woman talking to the police on the sidewalk. If the old woman owned the E90, then she would be gangsta!

Sorry to hear. Looks like you didn't get hurt which is always a good thing. I also saw you giving thecop an ear full. Hopefully the car will come back better then before. MTech kit maybe?

Just a whole bunch of glass in my hand. I sit far back enough that the airbag didn't touch me, so no broken nose. A concussion too.

No, the cops were really cool. The lady was pretty shook up because I didn't come out of the car the happiest in the world. Oh well, no one hurt. Her insurance is paying for it. Maybe some new upgrades. Not too sure yet. I had it in the shop for two months getting body work and then this happened.

Was about to start working on the performance literally the next day. At least I get another new Vorsteiner hood out of it. And a new windshield at minimum lol I had a chip in it that was annoying.

I'll tell you what though, that airbag is no joke when it deploys. I knew it came out fast, but that was like a Mike Tyson right overhand on steroids. Glad it missed me.

It's life...they are going to test the chassis next week, so I'm hoping it wasn't bent.

I'm just glad she didn't have anyone in her car. Hit her pretty hard on her back side. Was worried whether there was a kid in there. But, luckily I was the only one that had any injuries and mine were minor.

I got out of the car, slammed my door, and told her the best thing for her to do was to get away from me...that was as the blood was dripping from my hand. People kept trying to get me to talk to her, but I said it wasn't a good idea. I wasn't even worried about being hurt nor was shook up. I just got out looked at my car and almost lost it...she tried to blame me at first. I'm glad there were other people there that kind of pulled me back. oh well.

And that Vorsteiner hood is actually in good shape considering what happened. Obviously some damage to it, but it didn't bend or anything like that. Took it like a champ.

It's amazing how people try to blame their mistakes on others. Just amazing!
Glad you had witnesses to refute her b/s.

Yea me too.

I guess looking back, the funniest thing that happened was bout 5 seconds after the accident the BMW emergency response system was trying to talk to me asking me if I was ok. The only thing I said was, "Leave me the F*ck alone!" and that's when I got out.

That is awesome! lol. I actually used mine when I went sideways into a curb. I am glad I had BMW assist because it would have been a PIA trying to get a tow truck at 1AM on a Saturday on my own.
