My Ride: 2005 545i SMG. Titanium Grey with Grey interior and Anthracite wood.
I just orderd a 545 from Irvine BMW. Go see Chuck Mentas. He will help you decide.
Will your insurance give you enough to get a new car, or only current value?

i think that is a good news then 
. if you are happy with your dealer, just go back and buy another from them again...unless you want to leave us and get a m.benz :'(. i'm sure they'll give you some kind of loyal discount .

My Ride: 2011 F10 528i - Imperial Blue, Oyster/Black, Premium, Premium 2, Cold Weather, Xenons.
In the E60, its at the firewall where the aluminium front subframe mates with the steel rear subframe. This mating is special (due to corrosion that happens when unlike metals are joined...) using alot of new techniques and compounds. If it gets damaged... repair is quite dificult I imagine.
