wrecked my 2006 M35 and found a 2008 with 20k

[keithhr1]

I had started a previous thread regarding my wrecked 2006 M35, with great safety engineering
I survived, a week later bought an EX35, realized It was the wrong car for me and returned a
week later and took a loss and found a loaded 2008 m35 with just 20k miles on it, bought it with
a total difference of about 8 grand difference (more) but I just had to buy this beautiful Blue Slate with
graphite interior, totally loaded with both tech packages.
I am writing this to say how glad I'm glad to be back in the M35 community with such a beautiful
car. I cancelled my old Elite warranty got a $980 refund and for another $1000 I got an Elite warranty
taking me to August of 2017 purchased through Scottsdale Infiniti and the Infamous Courtney the
prolific Warranty deal maker for a tremendous savings. She's quick to respond to all inquiries and followup
paperwork.
So, I'm back after surviving a total loss, a terrible blunder car purchase and I discover the the exact
car I was looking for that was just listed at the dealer I bought the EX35, wrote them an email at 3:00am
in the morning to say I wanted the car and I would contact them the next day and to not sell it to anyone
else.
Lucky me

glad you were not injured in the crash and the ex is defintely a step down from a M even the fx which i looked at this weekend for my wife was a let down to us. the QX is too big we already have a expedition so we will have to look elsewhere for a midsize car.

I did suffer enough bumps and bruises from my body being so stressed that I am still spending most nights in my huge lazy boy chair.
I have the tendency for muscle spasms and because of my early days of extremely hard work and heavy lifting my neck is fusing a bit
and I have number gone spurs on my spine. But I am getting better and I just count my blessings as I married my 15 year lifes partner
in July. She is a wonderful woman and I am very fortunate. I have a car that is almost brand new, I love this car and it is roomier than
my first M. Car forums are kind of odd because the only link is the appreciation of the same car, but in this case the car is extra special
because it is so beautiful inside and out. A friend of mine owns a 95 740iL BMW and a newer Mercedes but the Mercedes looks more like
a Hyundai than a Mercedes, and without the badging the interior looks dreadful in my opinion.

After an untoward incident as yours-life and its happenings do seem a lot more beautiful and worthy for many. Reminds me of an old military aphorism: "Life has a flavor the protected never know." Enjoy!!

the night of my accident I wondered why I as spared and as I thought back through my life, I actually was paced into situations where I actually saved the lives of
6 different people, pulled one guy out of a burning room as I started to spontaneously combust, took a guy out of a tree that was hanging himself with a belt, one
guy was being beaten to death by 5 bikers to mention half. When placed into situations without the time to think one can't say it or they were acts of heroism, but
acts of humanity and I was indeed fortunate to survive and I'm thinking that I must have good karma. Soldiers often say that saving the lives of others isn't heroic but
just something they were compelled to do.
So I was fortunate to be able to share my experience.

I believe you hit the issue square on its head; without thinking most human beings are capable of what others will later, long after the fact call epic heroic acts. If you believe in evolution that's probably one of the reasons homosapiens survived and flourished. Those that did not act so and save others resulted in our ancestors killed/lost/dead in the evolutionary process-we wouldn't be.

The problem is as you see it; acting w/out thinking. When you stop to think about it, we too often end up w/a Kitty Genovese scenario http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitty_Genovese. Good for you man, but be careful out there.

most of us given the extra moment to think before acting, would be paralyzed with fear. The incident with the 5 bikers beating a man to death, was simply
me acting because I couldn't stand seeing a man beaten to death. They were all so focused on the act that I was all but invisible. In my youth I was a professional
arm wrestler who had beaten 5 worlds champions in Petaluma and I had a natural confidence that made me act in a fool hardy fashion. The truly powerful man doesn't have to have power in order to be powerful. The man in the burning room had the windows implode by the oxygen vacuum created in the room, when I opened the door it gave a huge amount of oxygen for a fire backdraft ( I think that's the term ) my sinus cavities all drained from my head, my hair started to combust and the hair on my arms all burned off and my hair was on the virgin of catching on fire when I simultaneously dived out of the room. Another split second of stupidity on my part that seems to be a part of my past. But something has protected me in all these instances and I have no idea what to call it. The man I lifted up in the tree that was hanging himself, I sat down with on a downed log and as I held his hand to offer him comfort , some joggers came by and gave us both a sneer and a look that said that we must have been gay and how disgusting. When a man tries to take his life it's in our nature to reach out and offer comfort, it's funny how judgmental people can be while being totally ignorant. So, maybe that's why I survived my car wreck.
