Car Flip Competition

Car Flip Competition

Two Thumbs Up to ardi for this video!

Oh those crazy Brits, what will they think of next? First we get the Figure 8 Demolition Derby where the race track crosses itself in the middle (ouch!), and now they bring us the Car Flip Competition , which is pretty self-explanatory and extremely good fun to watch.

We have to wait until April for the next one, but who's up for entering a Streetfire car?

Enjoy the Car Flip Competition video.

BMW looses a boat load of new M3's at port.

Source unknown.

Showing up all over the net is a series of BMW photos showing some smashed E92 M3 and 135 cars. Tragic given the limited number of cars expected to be produced int eh first year.

e60.net appears to have the earliest posting of the photos, and quotes an unknown story source.

The Courage tipped today at the port in Jersey City causing major damage to over 300 BMWs not including 70+ BMWs that were total losses.

a majority of the destroyed vehicles were M3s (mostly in dark blue) with a variety of 3ers and 1ers smashed up as well. A small number of the cars destroyed had German Tourist plates on them, those European delivery customers will NOT be getting their cars back.

If you were expecting your M3 or e90/92 in the next month, you're going to be in for a sad surprise.

those cars that were a total loss will be crushed, I asked a BMW rep, he stated that they will not be auctioned as there is a liability for letting those cars on the road. The shipping company's insurance is footing the bill, I do not know how they will handle those cars that are already owned by the European Delivery customers.

Those cars with light damage will be repaired at the Elizabeth Receiving facility and sold through BMW's dealer network as new cars.
