My brand new 2009 G37s sedan just wrecked
Pictures of my 2009 G37s (Journey, Premium, Nav, Sport, black grill) bought brand new 4/28/10 (9 miles on the odometer). I was rear-ended while at a complete stop by a BMW X5 going 50 mph and pushed into a Ford f150. BMW driver was cited and found liable. There is extensive damage to the rear end and minor damage to the front. The collision center will finish their tear-down on Monday and hopefully it will be enough to total out the car. The rear right frame rail is bent up to the roof of the trunk. The collision center has the preliminary rough estimates at $19k, but hasn't removed the body panels yet. Now the fun begins with the insurance company to get the proper value for my car. Oh, and I am now stuck driving a rental Toyota Corolla.... At least it has XM radio, i guess....

No, airbags didn't deploy. I was kind of shocked that they didn't. I have some back and shoulder injury from the impact and have been going to the doctor for treatment.

The airbags shouldn't have deployed, considering that the main impact was a hit from the rear. Judging by the photos, the impact in the front looks minor, so the airbags shouldn't deploy.
