Default My 850ci just got rear ended

You have to love this. I have been driving a 1996 tahoe with 166,000 miles holding off to get a new car so I can finish my 69. In a weak moment I bought the BMW 850ci. I have had this car for 2 months and someone just rear ended me. I am 41 years old and I have never had a vehicle hit. I am either due or this is some bad Karma from me getting another girlfriend instead of staying true to my 69.

In either case, world wide production of the 8 series from 1989 to 1998 is just under 50,000 units. How hard do you think it is going to be to get a new deck lid, bumper cover and fill panel...plus whatever else? New or used?

I see 3 long months and a slow ship coming from the "father land."

I am just thinking how pissed I would have been had that been my freshly completed 69.

I would have been typing this from the county jail.

That really Blows. I guess the biggest thing is the fact that you are alright.
Like you said, could have been worse had it been the 69.

Sorry to hear that Payton.

I just ran a check on the scarpyards here in Sweden. There are at least ten cars available to pick parts from.

Let me know what you exactly need and I'll try to find it.
