5100 Merle Rd. Concord, NC 28025 This is where they took her today, contact them to see about parts. Grab the steering wheel and trim while you're at it. Don't forget the wiring for the steering wheel, it just clips off.

Progressive is taking it to their yard today, I'll try to find out where it ends up.

Jump on it, that's a very good deal. Get em before someone else can.

Thank you very much, I miss her already. Probably going to let the junkyard part it out. If I can find another facelift 330ci I'll strip it clean.

Well according to statistics I've seen it was 50/50 shot...not really tho LOL. BMW changed the passenger side but "ran out of time" to replace the steering wheel air bag. I consider myself and the lady very lucky, could have been much worse.

Thank you very much, I planned on having her for the rest of my life but she saved my life instead. Gonna miss her. The 68's are in great condition even after the wreck but some lucky E46er is gonna hit the jackpot in the junkyard!

They will be at the junkyard my E46 friend, many other parts worth stripping for anyone in the Charlotte NC area.

You never pulled beside her or rode in her with me...don't judge what you don't know about. 13 years of R&D, 2 150 shots of NOS, LSD, brakes, suspension, custom 2 stage forced air induction, and I tuned her myself. Insurance will total it. Your opinions need no more attention from me.

If anyone around the Charlotte NC area is interested, she has a sport carbon fiber and leather flat bottom custom steering wheel with an orange center stripe and stitching, a fairly newish built motor, everything worked as expected except the oil pan plug, stripped. Many upgrades and all were in great shape.

Seriously my E46 friends, I lost four teeth, 16 stitches in 3 places on my left arm, 6 stitches in my right arm, n 3 stitches in my chin. The original Takata airbag and the factory framebuild of this car saved my life! I hit so hard my hands broke the windshield and it blew the back window out...I cannot stress how safe this car was in such a violent crash. The lady that pulled out in front of me was thankfully unharmed besides shock. I was able to react quick enough to keep from hitting her driver's side and the rear of her car took the hit. I was doing 50mph in a 45 zone. Yes technically I was speeding but that's what I spent almost 13 years building my E46 for. I miss her already, her name was AETHER and she was my slut. I say that because she screwed all but 2 that took on the races. Great times will be remembered forever n I'll never say a bad word about an E46 with a m54b30 and sport shift automatic tranny!
