Holy crap! It looks like you're a complete moron who doesn't have the slightest idea about crumple zones and methods used to extract injured people from crashed cars. :roll:

I just meant that it 'looked' crumpled with the top pretty much torn off. i know what you mean by crumple zones in which the car crumples a certain way to save the occupants, regardless of the damage to the car.

Dont you work on BMW`s...how hard is it to get your hands on one of those engines......its not like they are rare or anything...... :?

But brand new they are 16,000+USD if i remember correctly from my last inquiry. I don't have that kind of cash laying around. If i could find a wadded up M5 in a junkyard with a good engine for a reasonable amount, then it wouldn't be so bad.

But at this point, it's useless to have the engine since i have nothing to put it in :( as soon as i find a good transplant recipient though, the hunt will be on :D

The top is torn off because the rescuers used the Jaws of Life or a similar tool to extract the passengers.

aye, there was some russian diplomat shown in our news last autumn, drunk as a fucking hell.. couldnt even stand in his feet and had pissed himself all over.. made an accident and then attacked the cameraman and the police.. but the bastard had diplomatic immunity and nothing could be done.. police escorted the bastard to his home..

you're completly wrong, diplomats do get fined, the only think is that they can't get arrested. police can take you're license off, not the car though. So i don;t think they were going fast because they don't give a fuck about police, but because of the car!!

Aren't those SHAPE plates? Real diplomatic plates start with CD. If I'm well informed, they can defenitely be fined (certainly if they show irresponsible behaviour), but their cars can't be towed away if they're parked wrong, and can't also be impounded.
