That almost looks like my brother in-law's car. He decided to go around a 35 degree corner in the wet at 65 with me in it screaming the whole time for him to slow down.

I had airbag for dinner that night.

Doesn't matter, hit a standing object with the air bags deployed....that would have shattered most rides.

I'm seeing alot of E60's, E90's, and E92's running M5 and M6 replica wheels. 19's are readily available on eBay for cheap (< $1000 per set)! How they'll stand up to the pothole test remains to be seen.

Depends on the speed of the vehicle, but it looks like the 3 took the crash relatively well. The bumper and front parts are supposed to end up damaged at higher speeds in order to absorb the impact. The important part is that the driver and passengers escape unharmed.
