Now I know why I will always prefer Mercedes Benz to any other vehicle out there on the road. Amazing how the passenger compartment stayed in one piece. This is truly amazing. Glad to hear that she was ok.

It's an expensive car, and since the engine and drivetrain look to be fine, they probably won't total it. I saw a brand new 325i Convertible in the body shop waiting for a new engine. The car had something like 1000 miles on it, and the entire front end needed to be replaced. Of course it was cheaper to replace the engine, and suspension than the whole car, so that's what the insurance company did. It's unfortunate side effect of driving an expensive car and having a greedy insurance company.
