Wow, sorry to hear! I would have to agree that it looks like a total loss! Sorry to see that beauty in such condition!

Sorry to hear about this Chris, glad you're okay Bro. The Goblin can be fixed/replaced, no worries, maybe upgrade to an M5 now?

Damn, sorry to hear dude. That is seriously some crappy business. I think I would be pretty devastated if I had just put all that work like you did into the car recently.

The Goblin seems cursed...
Glad to hear that the transmission problem was electronic after all. Hope it comes back good as new!

Damn.... such an awesome car gone to waste.. Most importantly, you're okay. It just wasn't meant to be I suppose. You'll move on to another car and we can all follow the progression again!
