So I just had my first ever accident. Older lady rear-ended me while I was stopped waiting to cross traffic. Nobody was hurt, thankfully, and I only have a few hundered bucks worth of damage at worst that her insurance will pay for.

Her newish Rav4 lost its grille and had a pushed in bumper, while I just suffered a few scuffs, a couple unnoticeable cracks in the bumper, and two nickel-sized dents in the badge-inal (tee-hee) area.

I was stopped next to where that Versa is, waiting to turn left.

Everything was sorted out peacefully and she admitted to being distracted to the officer. She did see me at the last second and started to brake so she was only going about 20 when she hit instead of the full 50mph. I was only shunted forward like two feet before both of us came to a complete stop and my bumper isn’t even pushed in. Thank you BMW for making this thing such a tank!

Around a month after I got my E90, I slammed it into my garage wall while parking. I hit it so hard that I broke some 2x4s, was there any damage to the car? There is a little crease you can see at the perfect angle if you’re looking for it.

Only two feet?

Have a headache yet? I was hit once as a light turned green (so, however much an SUV can accelerate in 4 feet) and felt like shit for 2 days. I mean I was the front of a pileup so I did get hit 3 times, but didn’t move anywhere near two feet. If you wake up feeling crummy don’t hesitate to go to the doctor and be honest about it with her insurance.
