Calling all forum sponsors- 4 Series!!

So my e92 was totaled last saturday because of a drunk driver driving on the wrong side of the road with their headlights off causing a heads-on collision. Now I'm thinking of going with the 4 series coupe but wants to know if there are any sponsors making body parts for the m-sport package to make it more aggressive?? Maybe a sponsorship? xD I would love it to be as aggressive if not more than the F30.

That's one hell of an accident. I'm glad you made it out okay! Another example of fine BMW engineering.

Yah, I'm very lucky to be alive, BMW's engineering is amazing and saved my life! I will never buy another car brand because of this reason.

thanks guys ^^ only thing stopping me from buying this car now is the fact that its not as aggressive as the sedan. I'm hoping that theres a shop out there trying to change up the look of this m-sport trim!

I will say, I saw a new 435i with the 404 style 20" rims and that made a world of difference on the M sport. I like the M sport wheels but these were so much better.

I certainly would not want the car back after that, but I am somewhat surprised that is totaled from what we can see. What price did they total it at? Again, I'd rather have it totaled, just a little surprised from the way it looks in that picture.

Hey, is that Burton Way in Los Angeles? What time of night was this accident? How did you hold up after the accident? I hope you're okay.

With the impact in that area i am pretty sure there is significant damage to the frame as well as the engine and other key components. While the cost of the actual repairs may not exceed the value of the car, it likely cannot be safely repaired.

Glad to see the OP is ok. Not much worse in my opinion than people who drive drunk. Seen too many deaths as a result.

A nice front lip spoiler should help the F32's front end aggressiveness.

I think the F32 M-Sport bumper is less aggressive than our F30's bumpers in M-Sport guise.

Glad you're safe! Cars can be replaced in a matter of hours. Your health, on the other hand...

It's possible, and hopeful, the intoxicated driver, who hit you, will be required to drive with an ignition interlock device, if convicted. Either way, his/her life is going to be incredibly complicated for the next few years, and rightfully so! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_interlock_device

I'm glad the only choice you're going to be faced with, is getting an awesome new vehicle! Luck was on your side for sure! These frontal offset impacts are incredibly dangerous and result in a high number of fatalities.

Had this accident taken place 15 to 20 years ago, or had you been driving an older vehicle, the results may not have been so "favorable." That is, if you can call being hit by a drunk driver and walking away injury-free, a favorable conclusion!

thanks everyone! I am very lucky that I was driving a newer BMW or else things wouldve definitely ben worst. My car had a total damage of around 18k? This was located in Arlington, Texas at around midnight on a friday night =/ thats actually pretty early compared to what time i usually head home. It seems like there isn't a single part out for the 4 series yet which makes it hard for me to decide between it or the F30, F30 has an incredible agressiveness to it >.<

Great to hear your Okay OP...Those drunkards sure are a doosey! I love the 4, but in the end Im glad a didnt wait and went for the 3, its also a great car, and frankly just has more uses for me personally over the 4, while looking quite aggressive for a sedan, add some m5 reps (or any nice set of wheels), and boy will you have a beauty!

Thanks for the kind words ^^ im starting to lean towards the sedan because of the aggressive look of it but I'm not sure how much i'll like driving the sedan since I've always driven coupes. =x
