So much F30 hail damage in south Texas... McAllen!

BMW269 · 04-03-2012, 04:23 PM

OMG!

Really sorry to hear that! I hope assurances will cover everything and you'll get a new car.

holy cheese doodles.

Anderw · 04-03-2012, 04:32 PM

Damn thats crazy

mikikuki7 · 04-03-2012, 04:35 PM

LOL, well, We called Geico and since I change the deductible from 1k to 100dlls lol it was done before the hail, they just want to verify that I didn't do FRAUD! which is stupid because there wasn't any warning or anything, I just faxed them the records and they should be working on my car by friday! I got the only loaner there was at BMW lol... I guess 100deductible works...

The video above is nothing, we had hail for 45minutes baseball size, and half of McAllen will need to replace shingles and windows...

The front page headline is misleading.... moderators mind changing it?

Marissa0916 · 04-03-2012, 04:42 PM

These pics almost make me cry! As soon as I heard about it on FB, I called Ringo (my salesman) and asked him if everything was going to be okay

My car was outside when the storm hit but I live in Edinburg so it wasn't that bad in my area. Sorry about your car!

npcars · 04-03-2012, 04:46 PM

Guys, I don't mean to jack this thread, but I had a quick ?

What should one expect to pay for one of the vehicles damaged in the storm? (out of the same lot shown on the OP's pictures)

I'm currently residing in McAllen and I want to get my hands on an F30 if possible.

samchoi604 · 04-03-2012, 04:47 PM

Hail? More like meteor shower/armageddon

e92_m3 · 04-03-2012, 04:58 PM

Can I purchase the silver F30? Half off would be nice.

We're still curious how water supposedly got into your intakes on your F30 and friend's X3 from the storm. That wouldn't happen due to hail alone. Also, who quoted 23k for replacing the engine?

eddy1458 · 04-03-2012, 05:14 PM

i live in mcallen and my car was actually at bert ogden bmw...... i rushed friday morning to check on it and thank GOD

it was one of the few that was kept inside the shop

justinnum1 · 04-03-2012, 05:21 PM

Im calling them again tomorrow. And for future reference to anyone dealing with this dealership, the guy in the parts department is a douche.

r3dbimmer89 · 04-03-2012, 05:57 PM

Sorry about that man, I hope it's totaled so you can get a brand new one

Calmwinds · 04-03-2012, 06:19 PM

*sigh* In places that see hail, I wonder why they don't build an underground parking beneath the dealership to park all their cars so there's none on the lot. Geez

Calmwinds · 04-03-2012, 06:21 PM

did OP say his mom went to Church? How ironic. You go to church and you're hit with such bad luck.

bmrm396 · 04-03-2012, 06:23 PM

AT LEAST the first f30 totaled, WASNT TOTALED IN A CRASH HA

If you wanted them that bad, why not just order your car with them?

:

Doubt you'll get them from the dealer for a "bargain".
