got a long crack in my windshield, about 11". What route should i take? repair or replace? What would i be looking at for either?
'13 mustang.

Do you have glass coverage included in your insurance plan?

I had about the same size crack that grew to the entire windshield.

I inquired with my insurance about my glass coverage, I just had to pay a $250 deductible to have it replaced.

Guy did it in my driveway in less than an hour.

forgot to mention that i dont really have another garage space, so I'll have to park either the lexus or the cobra on the street which sucks :/

and sometimes when i drive the lexus, i wish it had more of a presence.. its quick, but just doesnt feel special.

Park the Lexus on the street. Like you said, it's not special, just a nice (almost 5 year old) car. Having both would be the perfect balance, you'll really appreciate the Cobra and how raw its power delivery is when you take it out for a rip, but at the same time when you're cruising to work you'll appreciate how smooth and refined the Lexus is.

Well, 5 days and 2 loaner cars later, I have my car back and fixed

No more bumper scuff or dent. They even refinished the wheel since the truck clipped that too. Only downside is now I have 1 wheel that looks brand new, and the other 3 look ****** in comparison . I think the previous owner parked by braille, all the wheels were pretty curbed when I got it

All in all, my insurance ended up paying $1800 to fix this, as they agreed with me that the chick who hit me was 100% at fault, so I didn't have to pay a penny. Crazy how fast body work can add up :x

I worked out a deal with the body shop to get my front bumper resprayed because it had a lot of rock chips all over it for cheap ($150), since they already would have the paint for the rear bumper and quarter panel for the accident damage.

So all in all, I only paid $160 after taxes to get my front bumper sprayed, which is something I wanted to do anyways, so it all worked out in the end







Sidebar: After driving a Sonata Hybrid for 3 days, I'm very happy to have my car back. Props to all the tree huggers out there for trying to save the world, but there's no way I could daily one of those, I don't care how good on gas they are. It was just way too slow and unresponsive, and I didn't like how you can feel the brakes sending power to the batteries either, felt really weird.

I love my e92 m3 and all, but I lust over a terminator every time I see one. Keep the lexus and get the terminator.

The IS-F will bore you after a while

 

[D.Josey]

dont know if I should go for either :

upgrading my 2011 is350 fsport to a used IS-F

or

keeping the lex and going for my dream car, 2003-04 terminator cobra

I'm biased so I say go with the ISF.

Nice but the whole video wasn't real time.

That's pretty obvious though.

He had to speed up the video to get it into 12+- seconds.

I thought it was obvious too but I'd bet most of the people leaving comments on IG wouldn't know.

Yea you got a point. Your car can't do 0-100 in .25 seconds?

Quick question. How come BMW doesn't make a performace 7 series to compete with the AMG S class?

alpina b7?

 

[friscosfinest]

Quick question. How come BMW doesn't make a performace 7 series to compete with the AMG S class?

they have the alpina b7, which is a "tuned" version of the 4.4 twin turbo v8 in the 750i

looks OK, but doesnt perform anywhere close to the s63/s65 or audi s8

 

[Thierry Henry]

Alpina b7 doesn't count cause it's not tuned by the ///M division

Cause there's no point in competing with the king.

I would assume there's no money to be made, otherwise they would. The 7 series is only slightly larger than the 5 series, if you want a performance BMW sedan, get the M5, I doubt most people need the extra bit of room the 7 series offers over the 5 series. The market for a full size performance 7 series is probably VERY small, and easier to fill using Alpina instead.

 

[omariwestafari]

Cuz the 7 ugly af thats why

 

[waitwut]

Cuz any car bigger than the m6 is OD

[koebot]

The next gen 7 series was just revealed recently and there are rumors that BMW will finally release the M7. Hasn't been confirmed though.

Different strokes

I don't like too many modern vehicles but I like the lip spoiler on this
