Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted April 20, 2021 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted April 20, 2021 This particular model have a known issue? Never going to stop all fires in all cars. Fuel tank takes a hit the wrong way and there's a spark and you have a fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFM Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Left frt tire went flat and pushed it into corner ? Or driver not paying attention ? Brake lights didn’t light up till just before impact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
favoritos Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Car is listed as a 750. It would not have had any problems with the curve at that speed. Odd accident scenario. Angle into rail was steep even for the curve. Didn't brake until way too late. The car climbed the rail too. Nothing could have held up after it got above the rail and hit the wall. That tunnel is goofy with relatively sharp curves heading in at both end. Hard to see ahead in the tunnel and at the approach. Main reason for reduced speed. It typically sees plenty of accidents. They already reroute trucks with flammables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anler Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 I like bmws but all I hear about is how dismal their reliability is. And then how expensive they are to fix. Hence their rapid depreciation. I would probably buy one if it wasn't for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt the load shift a little on the corner and thought for sure I was going over. That would have been a bad morning commute for a whole lot of people.

That’s also what makes used vehicles so attractive if you’re able to diagnose and fix your own cars. OEM parts through places like FCP Euro make buying parts for Beemers just as cheap or cheaper as domestic and Asian vehicles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My last beemer went 80,000. N54 with almost 500 wheel hp. Total parts was one water pump, 6 coils, two sets of plugs, and a coolant change. Tires, fuel, and oil are standard fare. A little more than a Toyota....but it’s the price to pay for a 10 second car that handles fabulous with a bargain entry level price tag.
