Well after two fucking years fo hard work in my car its dead...
I was on my way to a BMWCCA Meeting yesterday morning when my right front cailper decided to break and lock up my front wheel and slam me into a concrete wall @ about 65mph...

The car is really messed up... The floor pans are craked, all the suspension is fucked up the whole car is bent even the firewall craked and bent...

Im really pissed but in the other hand lucky i escaped without any injury...
The car went up in the concrete guardrail and slided on top of it with the bottom of the car and then snaped and fell on its side in the street... Im lucky it didnt go the other way cause there was a 45 feet drop...

Now im going to regroup and think fir a while what im going to do... The car is not fixable so i dont know if going to get a new roller and rebuild it for the track or go ahead and buy a Vert and do a complete restoration like i planned....

Well see im gonna think hard and decide...

Here are some pics...

Damn Luis, so sorry to hear that!

Glad you're ok. :D

[Lakis]

That is the worst- yes. glad you're alright. But once you're alright and you open the hood while holding your breath; you see that shock tower....man- so sorry. Everyone on here seems to put so much time into their cars. It's a labor of love and you won't get it back.

Best of luck man.

shit dude. shit. my condolences. glad you made it out ok.

[Ian Bowers]

Son of a fucking bitch. I loved your car! Sorry to hear man, I've watched your build progress, you put tons of time and energy into it.

At least you made it out all right.

Holly hell! Really glad you are OK.

[Bishop]

Jesus Luis that sucks. I liked your car

Sorry to hear that. On Fathers day this year I ran off the auto bahn at 100 mph into a forest. I spent 2 years building my car to take to the Nurburgring and it was finally ready. Open track day was the next weekend. I just picked up a touring to swap my motor and suspension into. It also cost me 1200 euro to get towed out of the woods and to the towing yard.

I'm so sorry. Glad you're ok though!

[Lodsin]

When I read the post and saw the wheel picture I thought... Oh no dont be the guy that just posted the "Quick Photoshoot" thread. Sorry to see the damage! What are your plans?

[Luis325]

OEM Caliper...

Plans for now... Take the car apart and throw away the body...
Thats it for now... Dont know yet. Want to think about what i want to build...

[Spiff325iS]

So sorry about this news man, that's horrible. But definitely a good sign that you walked out just fine.

Keep us posted.

[Luis325]

Im really pissed and sad but i got to make the best of it...Im Alive...
But I realized im kinda sick when after i got out the car and turned the kill switch of when i noticed the fuel coming out of the broken fuel tank was to check if i scratched my motorsport handles...LOL

Whats wrong with me...LOL Fricking e30's are an addiction.
