on top of my post earlier, if you look at it on the optimistic side, you'll get a new car soon 
! also, the longer i look at the pic, the more appreciate i have for the car. look at the headlight, looks like undamaged by the outside. look at the chrome grilles, still look like new. look at the side mirror, door, and many other things, still look pretty good. now we all know why bmw has the best residual value over years

I am glad that your wife is Ok. If it were any other car, the circumstances would have probably been more worse.

Glad to hear your wife is fine. Good job on putting her in a safe car. By the way, was anybody in the front passenger seat? I am sure you are aware of the dicussions on this forum concerning the "airbag issue" The lights on, the lights off, does the airbag work, doesn't the airbag work - we don't seem to know. Any input? Thanks, glad your wife is ok.

1 ) The good news is that your wife is OK.
2) The second good news is that if you get a 2005 BMW 525, the car will come with 17' wheels as standard instead of the 16' wheels you got
3) The bad news is that your 2004 BMW looks like an easy job to repair so the insurance will not total the car.

yea even though it hurts me much to see that car like that 
:'( :'( :'(
but i looks like it will be fixed since the damage is a lot less than $50,000
being that this machine is not only beautiful...its safe as well and thank god that your wife is okay.
good luck with the write off
