Real Real sorry to hear.
Sounds like you are okay, which is always job 1.

Didn't you just finish suspension work?

was saving up for it..
apparently only option is to junk it :/

don't know if im going to go w124.. but i sure as hell am going to miss it..
was thinking about getting a 400e but money is tight..

kind of wish i did die.. kinda lost all my friends, lost my gf, lost my car..
sigh.

Glad your okay. But...

Don't dispose of it!! Is it completely unrepairable? There MUST be someone who can fix it!!! 300E's are the superb!!! Please don't dispose of it. Even if the frame was damaged, it can still be fixed by a skilled Mercedes-Benz mechanic/technician.
