WOW! Sorry to see ya leave...glad to know you're OK after the crash...and still in a BMW...even if it isn't a 1er! Did the 1er's safety mechanisms prove themselves in the crash? I've seen one other pic of a totalled 135i: right into a pole and the car managed to absorb the crash energy really well, protecting the driver.

Well the 1er was a lot faster. I had the Jb3 running map 6 and with KW coils it seemed to handle better. However the 3er feels more stable. The extra weight makes the car feel more planted and stable at higher speeds. Also having a bigger gas tank has been nice on road trips.
After I install some goodies on the 3er, I will write a complete comparison.

Hey man..I'm sorry you had to go through that. I understand how it feels; was put in the same situation. What's most important is that you're still alive. Take care dude... Drive safe and MOD the fuck out of that 3ER.

I'm guessing the car spun as I blacked out from hitting the steering wheel and I don't remember what all was hit.

Damn... I rolled a car on the highway 4 years ago, in the winter, slid right off the road, spun, rolled, landed face up. Not a scratch on me luckily, but at the end of the day you start to realize that there are more important things than a car. To put it into perspective, being able to drive is more important than which car you drive. I'm sure you loved your 1er, but I guarantee you'll have a ton of fun in that 3er too. Enjoy it!

I've been saying this for the longest time, but no one around here wants to believe it.
