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....

 

That must have been some serious impact, hope your alright?.. Did the airbags deploy?

 

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.

 

goodness your rear got mangled badly! Glad your ok though..Im surprised they are fixing it rather then totaling it..

 

WTF was that BMW driver sleeping? I hope you get a new car with some extra options. Glad you're ok.

 

ouch but I hope you're okay from the accident. the rear crumple really held up

 

Sorry you got hit. Accept nothing less than a new replacement. It was not your fault you got slammed into. Hope it all works out for you.

 

Glad youre ok!

 

That looks like a real mess. Happy it's not worse and you are not seriously injured. Where in atlanta was this? Were you on the highway?

 

wow, that's horrible. A brand new car gets destroyed.

 

i was on I-285 west in between riverside dr and northside dr in traffic.

 

Yeah. I was thinking somewhere on I-285. Hope you get a new car out of it.

 

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.

 

Lucky it didn't touch gas tank ;-)

 

what was the outcome of the incident? totalled car?
