Oh yes, leaking is an understatement! All the fluid drained out and towed to stealership for repair under comprehensive @ more than $1200. Luckily the hit occurred about 3 miles from home. Low coolant light came on as I turned into my driveway and she was still leaking. Engine didn't overheat & fans didn't turn on.

So, you should be good but pull over immediately and have her towed should your "Low Coolant" warning ever come on.

I think they make a comb to straighten the intercooler fins if you can get to them

Sorry, no photo. I just got my car back from the body shop. My car was parked in the city lot and someone hit my car before into the hip area by the rear wheel. It looked like they turned their steering wheel to early and their car's front end seriously dented my car's hip area. $1387.00 was the price to fix it. They didn't leave a note so footed the $1,000.00 deductible and my insurance covered the rest.

I hit a rabbit over the weekend, cruising some B roads.. vaporized it. These German bumpers are STRONG! But i am glad i have PPF, even if its not the greatest install; still did its job for the most part.

damage: brake duct and plastic cover oil cooler.

that depends on what you mean by "make it".. alive? well.. I don't think he hobbled away from this one. Most of him did make it through the brake duct, though

Barely avoided a self inflicted would putting the flag back up. End of pole hit the rear bumper but I escaped with no damage

Yesterday was driving on the highway and possibly a stone came up and cracked my windshield. The actual dent is less than a quarter, but as you can see, there are two cracks coming out of it.

Scheduled an appointment with Safelite tomorrow to get it filled with resin. But still debating if I should get the entire windshield replaced...

Geico insurance did say they will cover 100% of the OEM (BMW Logo) windshield. And will probably have Safelite do the install as well. We shall see...

Never had a chipped window ever, so this is super frustrating.

I do not know JC, I am cannot even see your battle scar after looking at BigBear's post.

Big Bear, is that from a tire that someone decided to change 'on the fly?'

Towing it home after purchase, rock hit the drivers mirror glass. Unreal bad luck

Trying to figure out how to post a picture... Haven't done it in a forum in 10 years

I went through the exact same thing. Bingo!
Plus I had to respray and get the bumper painted.
And BTW this week the M2C is at the shop and I'm driving the car in the pic 🤣.

The biggest not-too-obvious difference is the feedback. This car feels like a boat hovering over the street. The steering wheel feels like taken from a video game. No feedback at all. Extremely soft.

Anyway, when I get into this thing I start laughing. It feels funny to drive this when the M2C is your DD. I can't stop laughing!

Ha. I had an A250 hatch (Canada only?) and I found it comical as well. Glad to have my car back.

Here is my scar, that was repaired (respray with new PPF on top). This is after I put some to itch up pain on it to hide the black plastic.

Rim scars from tire chains.

The rim pics are of course post-chains. The white stuff is where that "Konig" pad was attached.
