R.I.P.
My baby was murdered this past weekend when a bad / distracted driver decided to drive head on into me on the highway. I’ll miss her! And now I’ll have to go through the waiting process of reordering another with the specs that I had previously. (not to mention all of the mods...smh)
I’ve got to say the car is really safe and mbrace is a nice feature (god forbid you have to use it) I left the scene of the accident with nothing but a scratch on my nose from the airbag deployment and a broken heart.

That blows, man. At least you weren`t hurt. Are those performance seats for sale? (As long as no stains were made in the accident lol)

Glad you are ok, one of the reason I decided on MB was that same reason I also have seen a head on crash at a combined speed of over 100mph and the GL driver survived.
LOL at people wanting parts I saw this thread last night and was thinking hmmmmmm maybe the wheels made it ok and he would sell them.
But hen I thought it was too soon..... I guess not!

Sorry to hear that man. As long as you are okay. Insurance will take care of the rest. Just have to wait. Why get the exact same spec? Why not try out a new color this time?
Also see if you can sneak that ECU out. Then you one to tune, and one to keep stock.

I took the ECU out and then thought better of it. I wasn’t sure if insurance would need it for the crash data. I’m hoping that the folks at AMR will look out for me on my next car.

Damn bro. Sorry to hear this happen to you. I hope all goes in your favor. Keep us posted for sure. Glad you are safe, but it does suck to loose the car. Any way of getting the car to maybe take off the suspension and wheel spacers? Best of luck. Cant wait to see the new one!

Thanks man! Yeah... I think I’m gonna go with the selenite magno grey with the studio package this go round. When I say same spec I mean fully loaded minus the heads up display. I liked all of the features in my previous car.

Glad to hear you're safe. My heart broke a little scrolling down, waiting on the accident photos. You had a great looking coupe.

Good to see you walked away though! A car can always be replaced.
