15mph? holy.. glad you're safe
weird how your rear bumper came off too.. think someone hit you from the back?.. that would explain the extensive damage at 15 =p

+1 -- definitely good to hear you're unscathed. The rear bumper falling off is a bit odd tho :-/

Sorry about your car...reading your mod list it looks like you had a really nice set up. I am glad you are not hurt, this is the most important thing.

Just heard back from the insurance company, and they totaled out the car. They didnt have settlment info yet, so I dont know how much Im going to get. Any one have an idea? Its was an 07 RWD no ML with about 19k miles on it.

Anyways, the damage does make it look like the collision was at higher speeds, but if you look close at the pics, the impact completely missed the front bumper, and went right through the hood. Nothing but soft cruchy parts all the way to the engine.

So now that I know for sure, all parts listed above are up for sale.

did you have NAV or no nav?

if that's the price for no nav, it's a good offer

and if that's a no nav offer, what is your insurance company?
