First Disaster
Sunday, June 23rd, 2002. My mother's birthday.
My 1997 BMW M3 Lux Coupe decided that an impromptu lane-change in the rain would be a fine opportunity to add a little excitement to my life. After doing a 360 across two lanes of traffic on the Florida Turnpike, it followed-up with a 180 against a guard rail. No injuries to myself or my three passengers, thank God, and other traffic managed to avoid hitting us.
Preliminary damage estimate: US$12,000.
Here's a before picture, from last August. My baby was a beauty, showing no visible signs of it's age. BMW Geeks might note that she had a couple of tasteful and subtle exterior modifications...
