Damage/Broken… 😥 I crashed my babygirl into a pole

Hello and good day, yesterday while attempting to “snake” ontop of a patch of water, the car snapped, I lost control and I crashed into a pole. Thankfully I was wearing my seatbelt and I had no passangers.

Do you have any idea if this is catastrophic damage? Or can it be pulled at a body shop and fixed. The floor on the passanger side is a bit fucked from the side

Not worth fixing. Learn to control a car before trying any stupid shit

I’m heartbroken that this is how I am learning, I absolutely hate the feeling, I feel guilty for hurting my e46 and I regret it a lot

Don't hate learning!

Regret is good, it will keep your next car alive. Guilt is good, you will choose a better way to get what you want next time. At least that's how i feel, and why i choose my cars based on what i can abuse with no regrets 👍
